Description

This spacious detached family home offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, located in a well-established residential area. With its extended layout, the property features an expansive entrance hall leading to three reception rooms, a kitchen, and a cloakroom on the ground floor. The first floor boasts three well-sized bedrooms, including a versatile dressing or cot room, alongside a bathroom and separate WC. An additional bedroom with an en-suite shower room is situated on the upper floor. While the home requires some updating, it presents excellent potential for reconfiguration—consider enhancing the kitchen space or merging the dressing room with one of the bedrooms.

Conveniently located near Greenbelt countryside and town amenities, including transport links and local schools, this property awaits someone ready to unlock its full potential.
