About
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this three-bedroom semi-detached family home is positioned within a quiet residential pocket of Coombe Dingle and represents a substantial refurbishment opportunity for buyers seeking a project.
The accommodation is arranged around a central entrance hallway, providing access to two reception rooms and a separate kitchen with a door leading to the side of the property.
To the first floor, a landing serves three family bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The property now requires comprehensive modernisation and remedial works throughout and is therefore unlikely to be suitable for mortgage lending in its current condition.
It will be of particular interest to cash buyers, investors or developers looking to add value and reconfigure or update to their own specification.
Externally, the home benefits from a rear garden with side access and a secure, lockable outbuilding.
The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature hedged boundaries, while the front garden is also laid to lawn and enclosed by wooden fencing.
Additional features include double glazing, a gas connection and gas central heating.
Set within a peaceful suburban location, the property offers considerable scope to create a well-proportioned family home once fully refurbished.
