Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached home presents a significant opportunity for buyers seeking both immediate comfort and the potential for future enhancement. Recently subjected to extensive renovations, it features an array of high-quality fixtures and finishes that reflect a keen attention to detail. With major structural improvements such as updated electrical systems and a new gas central heating system, this property is well-prepared for modern living. The clever reconfiguration of the ground floor has resulted in an inviting open-plan layout at the rear, ideal for family gatherings or entertaining guests. The internal space spans approximately 965 square feet and is filled with natural light, showcasing an elegant entrance hallway leading to a cozy lounge with bay windows. The standout feature is undoubtedly the expansive 19’ breakfast kitchen/family room, designed with modern tastes in mind and equipped with integrated appliances that enhance functionality. The first floor houses three bright bedrooms, including a primary suite complete with a private en-suite bathroom, complemented by a newly fitted family bathroom featuring contemporary design elements. Outside, there’s off-road parking along with a detached garage offering additional storage or workspace options. The rear garden offers potential to create a personal oasis thanks to its south-west facing aspect and existing patio area. Situated in a convenient location close to local amenities and green spaces, this property not only functions well as a family home but also holds substantial potential for further development or customization, making it an attractive proposition for investors or homeowners looking to add their own touch.
