SUMMARY

Originally thought to have been built in the 1920’s, this semi-detached property, which has been a much loved home by the same family for over 40 years, now offers much in the way of potential. There is scope here to either update the house as it stands or extend the current property’s footprint, subject of course to any necessary permissions. At present, the layout includes an enclosed porch, large sitting / family room with wood burner, separate dining room, spacious kitchen / breakfast room, utility area, cloakroom, lean-to conservatory, three bedrooms, generous bathroom and two garages cum workshops. The property is situated in a rural, yet not isolated position, surrounded by beautiful countryside. It is approached over an existing driveway where there is parking and turning for a good number of vehicles to the front of the house and garaging, and to the rear is a good size garden, bordered on one side by a neighbour’s paddock where horses gently graze. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate what this property and its location have to offer. NO ONWARD CHAIN.
