Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached property offers a blank canvas for those looking to add value through renovation. With no chain involved, it presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or renovators eager to make their mark. The home is conveniently located near essential amenities, transport options, schools, and local beaches, making it attractive for family living or rental potential.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming front garden and porch area that leads into a spacious hallway flowing into a bright lounge. The first floor provides access to two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a smaller room suitable for a nursery or office. The family bathroom is equipped with a basic three-piece suite and an electric shower over the bath.

The standout feature of this home is the large kitchen diner at the rear — this space holds tremendous potential as it allows for customization according to your preferences. Current features include ample cabinetry, pantry storage, and views of the private rear garden. There is also the possibility to install French doors that open onto the patio area, ideal for entertaining.

The outdoor space comprises an enclosed garden with patio and lawn areas surrounded by fencing, along with an outhouse for extra storage. On-street parking is available, and there may be an opportunity to develop off-street parking subject to obtaining necessary planning permissions.

This property is not just a house; it’s an enticing project with plenty of room to innovate and enhance its value in a desirable location.
