Summary

Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the south side of town, this three-bedroom semi-detached property represents a strong opportunity for investors or developers. Requiring updating throughout, the property offers clear scope to add value through refurbishment and modernisation. Offered with no onward chain, it's well suited for a straightforward purchase and quick turnaround.

Internal Layout & Potential

The ground floor comprises an entrance hallway leading to a front-facing reception room with an L-shaped layout, providing flexibility to reconfigure into a more contemporary open-plan living/dining space if desired. A kitchen is located to the rear with direct garden access, presenting further scope for extension (subject to planning).

A ground floor bathroom is also in place, which could be reconfigured or relocated depending on the chosen layout.

Upstairs, there are two good-sized double bedrooms and a third single room, offering a practical rental or resale configuration for families, sharers, or first-time buyers.

External & Development Scope

To the front, a sizeable driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles a key selling point for both resale and rental markets.

The rear garden benefits from a south-westerly aspect, increasing desirability for occupiers. Its size and layout offer potential for landscaping improvements or extension opportunities (STPP), adding further value.

Location Benefits

The property is positioned within an established residential area with consistent demand, offering convenient access to the town centre, local amenities, and schools. Its proximity to green space enhances long-term resale and rental appeal.
