Description

This charming property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a home with character and significant renovation potential. With over 1,600 square feet of internal living space, this residence features three bedrooms and ample areas that can be adapted to suit modern needs. Entering the home, one is greeted by a spacious lounge equipped with a central fireplace, which could serve as a cozy focal point with the addition of a contemporary log burner. This room flows seamlessly into the dining area, where wooden-clad ceilings and skylights create an inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to this space is a large galley-style kitchen featuring generous cabinetry and counter space, ideal for future updates. A conservatory and utility room add further practical living space on the ground floor, along with an extension that includes an additional bedroom and a convenient shower room. The upper level offers further charm with two well-proportioned bedrooms; one serves as a bright family bathroom equipped with a three-piece suite. Additionally, there is a sitting room featuring an original cast iron fireplace, leading up to a unique mezzanine-style third bedroom complete with a Velux window and access to its own roof terrace — perfect for creating an intimate outdoor nook. Externally, the property benefits from a tranquil rear garden suitable for entertaining or relaxation during warmer months. Notably, there is also an unused side plot that provides excellent potential for expansion or could be repurposed for off-street parking or additional outdoor space. The location benefits from proximity to local amenities and transport links while still providing a peaceful retreat away from the hustle of urban life. This combination of charm, character, and untapped potential makes it an ideal candidate for buyers looking to put their personal stamp on their new home or consider future investment opportunities.
