Description

This mid-20th century three-bedroom semi-detached home presents a unique renovation opportunity, nestled in the heart of a vibrant village atmosphere. While it is currently in tidy yet dated condition, the property offers a solid foundation for modernisation and potential extension, subject to necessary permissions. The layout features two spacious reception areas, a conservatory, and a long rear garden, providing ample space for family living or expansion. A detached garage and several sheds offer additional practicality and storage solutions. The front garden permits the possibility of creating a driveway if desired. Kennington boasts an excellent community spirit with various amenities including shops, a pub, health centre, and recreational activities suitable for all ages. Its proximity to major roadways and rail links makes commuting convenient while maintaining a peaceful residential environment. The interior features well-proportioned rooms that allow for creative reimagining. The airy hallway leads to both the kitchen—refitted not long ago—and the sizeable living area enhanced by its bright bay window. There's considerable scope to enhance the existing spaces or create new ones through extensions. Upstairs houses three bedrooms arranged around a light-filled landing. Each room has its unique aspects; the largest overlooks the tranquil back garden while strategically placed storage allows for easy organisation. The current bathroom setup includes a separate toilet, which may appeal to families looking for practicality. Outside, the expansive garden has hosted numerous joyful gatherings and provides plenty of room for gardening or outdoor activities. This property not only offers immediate comfort but also represents an exciting canvas for future owners wanting to bring their vision to life.
