About
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this extended three bedroom semi-detached home is situated on the popular Poets development.
In need of modernisation throughout, the property presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create a home to their own taste, with excellent potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The accommodation begins with an extended porch leading into a generously proportioned living room. Beyond this is a separate dining room, with patio doors opening into the conservatory.
The kitchen is positioned to the side, and there is considerable potential to create a superb open-plan kitchen/dining space by combining these areas.
To the first floor are three bedrooms, including two good-sized doubles, together with a re-fitted shower room.
Externally, the property occupies a generous corner plot, offering fantastic scope for further extension, subject to planning permission.
The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with attractive flower and shrub borders and, subject to the installation of a dropped kerb, offers excellent potential for off-street parking.
The south-westerly rear garden is also predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by established flower and shrub beds and a large side patio seating area, which enjoys plenty of sunshine and provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining.
A rear pedestrian gate provides convenient access to the garden, as well as access to the garage, located in the nearby block behind the property.
An exciting opportunity for those seeking a home with generous outdoor space, excellent potential and the chance to modernise and extend to their own requirements.
