Description

This unique end-terraced period property presents an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to create a modern family home. Featuring three spacious bedrooms and generous accommodation across multiple levels, the property is situated in a sought-after location but is in need of complete refurbishment throughout. The ground floor boasts traditional proportions with a front-facing living room and a separate dining room, both of which retain some period character yet require full updating to meet contemporary standards. The rear kitchen, although functional, is dated and offers ample potential for redesign—whether aiming for an open-plan layout or a stylish kitchen/dining area that aligns with the needs of modern living. A ground floor bathroom also exists, necessitating complete renovation as part of any revitalization efforts. On the first floor, you'll find three well-sized bedrooms that offer flexibility and ample space. While the current layout provides a solid foundation, there is scope for reconfiguration to improve flow and usability according to personal preferences. A family bathroom on this level similarly demands full replacement within the overall renovation plan. The second-floor attic space currently serves as an additional bedroom but does not meet building regulations to be classed formally as such. Nevertheless, it offers versatile space that could be enhanced further pending necessary approvals—an ideal project for maximizing the property's potential footprint. This property comes with no forward chain, making it an exciting prospect for buyers ready to embark on a comprehensive renovation journey.
