About
No Onward Chain Highly desirable West End of Barry, this handsome Victorian mid-terrace combines generous living accommodation with timeless period character, offering a fantastic opportunity to restore and personalise a truly impressive family home.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway.
To the front of the property is an elegant reception room featuring a beautiful bay window, high ceilings and an original fireplace, while a separate dining room provides an excellent space for family meals or entertaining guests.
To the rear, the spacious fitted kitchen offers ample room for modernisation and opens onto a useful rear utility area, with a ground-floor WC completing the accommodation.
The first floor comprises three generously sized bedrooms together with a shower room.
On the second floor are two further double bedrooms, making this an ideal property for larger families, those working from home, or anyone requiring versatile living accommodation.
Externally, the property benefits from an enclosed rear courtyard garden, with useful outbuildings that provide excellent storage potential.
The front garden enhances the property's attractive kerb appeal while maintaining the traditional character expected of homes within this highly regarded street.
Although the property would benefit from updating throughout, it already offers gas central heating, double glazing to much of the property, an abundance of original features and exceptional room sizes rarely found in modern homes.
