Description

This inviting semi-detached residence is situated on a spacious corner plot in a sought-after residential area north of York. With no onward chain, this property offers an appealing opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a home with abundant renovation potential. The layout comprises three well-sized bedrooms and generous living spaces distributed over two levels, making it suitable for families or individuals seeking flexible accommodation. The main entrance opens into a welcoming hall that leads to a bright living room, which is perfect for day-to-day living. Adjacent to this is a separate dining room that presents the option to be opened up to the kitchen, creating an open-plan environment if desired. The kitchen itself includes practical units but holds potential for modernisation or expansion towards the side of the property. Upstairs, the three bedrooms provide ample space for family use or can easily be transformed into guest rooms or home offices as required. The house bathroom is serviceable but could benefit from updating to meet contemporary standards. The outdoor space surrounding the property features low-maintenance gardens at the front, side, and rear, providing flexibility for various landscaping ideas or entertaining arrangements. With significant off-street parking options and a detached garage, this home promises convenience alongside its investment potential. Located within close proximity to local shops and amenities, as well as excellent schools and transport links to York city centre and beyond, this property combines suburban tranquillity with accessibility. Moreover, nearby parks and riverside walks enhance its appeal for outdoor enthusiasts.
