Description

Positioned on a desirable tree-lined street in Prestwich, this detached property known as "Newlyn" presents a distinctive chance for those looking to invest in a renovation project. The house is currently in a neglected condition, necessitating a thorough 'back-to-brick' overhaul, but its adaptable layout provides an exceptional opportunity to create a customized living space that could include independent living quarters or workspace. The main residence offers the convenience of bungalow-style living with the generous space typical of larger homes. It features an entrance porch leading into a central hallway which connects to two spacious reception areas and three well-sized bedrooms, each benefiting from the seclusion offered by its detached setting. A unique aspect of this property is the third reception room located on a lower level, accessible from the exterior, along with a lift connecting it to the main floor. This versatile area has great potential to be converted into: - A self-sufficient annex for family members, - A dedicated home office or creative studio, - Or even a private gym or cinema room with direct access to the garden. Nestled within the prestigious M25 postcode, Poplar Drive boasts proximity to Prestwich Village's vibrant local scene and Heaton Park's expansive greenery, alongside excellent transport links like the Metrolink and M60 motorway. For investors and visionaries alike, "Newlyn" stands as an empty canvas ready for comprehensive modernization. In an area where completed homes achieve high market values, this property offers significant potential for capital appreciation while allowing you to tailor it perfectly to your lifestyle needs. Enhanced by its unique wooded frontage, which ensures privacy, this property represents an attractive investment opportunity.
