Properties offering this level of potential, generous accommodation and extensive gardens are increasingly difficult to secure, making early viewing highly recommended.
A rare opportunity to create an exceptional family home
Requiring a comprehensive programme of modernisation and restoration throughout, the property represents an exciting proposition for developers, investors, or families looking to create a bespoke forever home. With generous room proportions, flexible living accommodation and excellent outdoor space, the foundations are firmly in place for an impressive transformation.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway leading to a generously proportioned front-facing lounge, where large windows allow natural light to flood the principal reception room. To the rear, a spacious dining room provides the ideal setting for family meals and entertaining, while the adjoining galley-style kitchen offers excellent scope for redesign and extension, subject to the appropriate consents.
Ascending to the first floor, a substantial landing serves three well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys a bright front-facing aspect and generous proportions, while a large double bedroom overlooks the rear gardens. A further single bedroom to the front benefits from useful loft storage, providing additional practicality and flexibility for growing families or those working from home.
Externally, the property enjoys expansive gardens to both the front and rear, offering significant outdoor space that, while currently requiring clearance and landscaping, presents enormous potential to create attractive family gardens, entertaining areas, or productive outdoor spaces with the raised decking area. The generous plot further enhances the property's appeal and provides opportunities rarely found within traditional terraced homes.
Additional benefits include a detached garage, ideal for secure parking or workshop use accessible from the lane, together with a useful cellar store providing valuable storage space.
Situated within easy reach of Greenock's excellent range of amenities, schools, transport links and leisure facilities, the property combines an enviable location with considerable development potential. For buyers prepared to undertake renovation works, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home capable of being transformed into a truly outstanding family residence.
