Description

This three-bedroom terraced home located in the desirable Manselton area combines generous living space with notable potential for renovation and investment. The property features a practical layout suitable for families or investors, set within proximity to local amenities, schools, and public transport options, alongside ample on-street parking. On the ground floor, you'll find a spacious bay-fronted open-plan double reception room, a separate dining room, and a sizable kitchen that includes an extension designed with a glass roof, creating a bright utility area. This area leads seamlessly into an enclosed rear garden complete with a shed, perfect for outdoor activities or entertaining. Upon entry, you are greeted by a welcoming porch leading to the hallway that connects to the lounge as well as under-stairs storage and flow towards both the dining room and kitchen. The reception room is brightened by large uPVC double glazed windows and features an electric fireplace for added comfort. The dining room is centrally located with views of an internal courtyard while the kitchen at the rear provides ample workspace, equipped with necessary appliances including two freestanding fridge/freezers. Upstairs brings two good-sized double bedrooms and a single bedroom along with a family bathroom arranged over two landings. The master bedroom offers generous proportions with double glazing providing natural light from the front. A recently installed cupboard housing the emersion water heater can also be found on the second landing providing additional storage potential. Though this home exudes character and charm, it presents an exciting opportunity for modernisation. With some targeted updates, it can be transformed into a contemporary family residence or serve as an attractive long-term investment in this sought-after locality. Off-street parking enhances its appeal further.
