Description

This attractive detached house, built in 2008, presents a wonderful opportunity for modern living in a tranquil cul-de-sac setting. Recently redecorated in neutral tones and newly carpeted throughout, it offers a superb blank canvas for personal touches. The bright and spacious layout includes an entrance hall leading to a generous bay-fronted living room and a dining kitchen with French doors that open to the garden. A separate utility room and ground-floor W.C. enhance functionality. On the first floor, you'll find four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which feature fitted wardrobes. The dual-aspect master bedroom boasts an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom has a charming Juliet balcony overlooking the private rear garden. Outside, the property benefits from an integral garage/carport with potential for conversion into additional living space, subject to necessary approvals. The enclosed rear garden is a peaceful retreat, offering plenty of scope for landscaping and personalization. Additionally, residents enjoy access to a communal meadow at the end of the cul-de-sac, perfect for leisurely walks along the river Devon. With uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, and no onward chain, this home is ready to be transformed into your ideal living space.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This attractive detached home, built in 2008, offers a modern interior with spacious living areas and a well-maintained exterior. While the asking price of £280,000 presents a cheap opportunity compared to the local average of £248,668, the absence of usable floor area limits the overall value assessment. The property is freshly redecorated in neutral tones, providing a superb blank canvas for personalization. The generous living room, well-proportioned bedrooms, and modern kitchen with integrated appliances are standout features, making this a desirable option for buyers looking to add their own touch.

The garden, however, is in need of landscaping, presenting a project opportunity to create a beautiful outdoor space. Additionally, there's potential for converting the integral garage into additional living accommodation, subject to approval. Although the overall opportunity score is limited due to the economic context, there remains significant potential for enhancement and value creation, especially in this peaceful cul-de-sac setting close to countryside walks and local amenities.

Key opportunities

  • Modern finishes throughout that allow for easy personalization.
  • Potential for garage conversion to additional living space, subject to approval.
