Description

This charming family residence, a well-preserved example of 1930s architecture, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled in a private area with direct access to the picturesque Sowerby Flatts, this substantial property boasts many original features that could be enhanced to meet modern standards while preserving its character. The layout includes an inviting entrance hall with parquet flooring, a spacious living room filled with natural light from multiple windows, and an elegant dining room featuring French doors that lead to the garden. The traditional kitchen, equipped with wooden units and several storage areas, offers great potential for updates. The ground floor also includes a cloakroom for convenience. On the first floor, you'll find three generously sized double bedrooms alongside a bathroom and separate WC. The galleried landing not only adds a sense of spaciousness but could also be transformed into additional usable space or storage. Outside, the extensive gardens provide privacy through mature hedging and feature various levels of landscaping including flower beds and pathways. An insulated wooden shed with power supply previously served as a home office, showcasing versatility in usage. While meticulously maintained over the years, this property would benefit from modernization throughout, thus presenting an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to invest in an appealing residential setting.
