Description

This treasured family residence, available for the first time in over four decades, presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a property ready for modernization. Situated on the desirable Friends Lane and overlooking unspoiled farmland, this solid red-brick home, originally constructed by esteemed local builder Charles Halton, features spacious rooms that can easily adapt to contemporary living requirements. While the current owners have lovingly maintained the home, its next occupants will find ample potential to enhance and renovate according to their preferences. The layout includes two generous reception areas, providing flexibility for everyday living and social gatherings. Notably, the kitchen has been extended at the back of the garage, offering further prospects for configurations or improvements (pending necessary approvals). The expansive rear garden presents an inviting space for families and gardening enthusiasts alike, and it holds promise for future extensions or landscaping projects that could significantly increase value. This freehold property benefits from a relatively modern boiler that has been serviced regularly, attesting to the care given over the years. Overall, this home is ideal for discerning buyers who appreciate character and are eager to explore its substantial renovation potential.
