Description

This spacious four-bedroom detached property is located in a desirable residential area, renowned for being within the Bournes Green School catchment. Conveniently close to local amenities, including shops and a mainline railway station, this home has significant renovation potential. While the house requires modernisation throughout, it features a south-facing rear garden and off-street parking for multiple vehicles, along with a single garage. The entrance leads into a hall with wood effect laminate flooring and expansive living spaces including a lounge with fireplace, dining room with French doors to a conservatory, and a kitchen equipped with essential appliances but in need of updating. The first floor offers four bedrooms and a family bathroom that could benefit from contemporary fixtures. With immediate vacant possession available and no onward chain, this property represents an excellent opportunity for investors or those looking to create their dream home through refurbishment.
