Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached property, positioned at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac, presents notable renovation and investment opportunities. The home boasts charming original features including parquet flooring and expansive windows that fill the space with natural light. While significant modernization has already been undertaken, including rewiring, new windows, and a boiler replacement in 2018, there remains potential for further enhancements. The integral garage conversion into a playroom reflects the family's efforts to maximize internal space, but additional extension possibilities exist due to the generous corner plot garden, ideal for anyone looking to expand their living area. Internally, the decor conveys a lived-in warmth, albeit cosmetic rather than structural. This offers prospective buyers an excellent chance to personalize their new home without the need for immediate major renovations. The property includes three sizable double bedrooms suitable for various living arrangements or home office setups. Outside, the extensive garden is well-suited for family activities and has been utilized effectively throughout the seasons. With ample parking and a quiet neighborhood atmosphere complemented by accessibility to local amenities and schools, this home is strategically situated for family life while also offering promising growth potential.
