This house offers a new owner the opportunity to personalise, and could be turned into a wonderful home for a local family. The surrounding gardens make this property all the more desirable, with private outside space to enjoy. Upon entering, the entrance hallway, in need of modernisation, leads to the living room to the left. With a dual aspect and slight fell view to the front and garden aspect to the rear, the space is naturally bright and an ample size to accommodate furnishings. From the hallway, you reach the kitchen which is sizeable with wood effect flooring and ample wall and base units to the left and a stainless steel sink with a window above offering a side aspect. A Zanussi electric 4 ring hob and diplomat oven below and a cupboard to the left for storage are convenient, and with some modernisation, this kitchen has the potential to become a fabulous space. The adjoining utility offers more base units, understairs storage, shelving and an Indesit washing machine. The Worcester boiler is housed in the cupboard and offers storage below. The door allows access to the rear garden. Upstairs, bedroom 1 is a double, with a front aspect, and space for furnishings. In need of re-decoration, this bedroom also has a shower with tiled walls and UPVC double glazing to windows. Bedroom 2 is also a double and has built-in over the stairs storage and a side aspect over rooftops. Bedroom 3 is a single with rear aspect and both have UPVC double glazing. The loft space is accessed from the landing. The bathroom has a sink and black half tiling to walls. The bath is also fitted as well as a small storage cabinet. The WC is accessed off the landing and again has half tiling to walls. Both could benefit from modernisation. Outside, the property benefits from outdoor space on both the front and rear as well as a side garden. At the rear is a useful garden shed and small paved area with space for chairs and mature shrubbery surrounding. A path around the side of the house also links the sloped side garden and front garden which is well maintained and contains mature shrubs and allows space to sit out and enjoy. This property has the potential to become a fabulous family home for locals, with schools close by and shops a stones throw away, this convenient home offers endless opportunity.
