About
Shortland Horne are delighted to present this three-bedroom semi-detached family home, occupying a particularly good-sized plot on the popular Franciscan Road.
Offering well-proportioned accommodation, a detached garage and, importantly, excellent potential to extend and further develop the existing footprint, the property represents a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking for a home they can enhance over time, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into the hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor.
A real feature of the ground floor is the generous through living room, providing an excellent amount of space for both lounge and dining furniture and making this a versatile room for everyday family life and entertaining.
To the rear is the kitchen, which leads through to a useful sunroom overlooking the garden.
The current layout provides plenty of opportunity for reconfiguration, with the size of the plot lending itself particularly well to buyers wishing to explore a larger open-plan kitchen/dining/family space or further ground-floor accommodation in the future, subject to the relevant consents.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to three bedrooms, including two particularly well-proportioned principal bedrooms alongside a third bedroom which would work equally well as a child's room, nursery or home office.
The accommodation is completed by the family bathroom. Outside is where this property really comes into its own.
The home sits on a generous plot, providing valuable outside space and numerous possibilities for extending the current accommodation.
Whether considering a rear extension, side development or a more substantial redesign, there is genuine scope to create a significantly larger family home, all subject to planning permission and building regulations.
A further benefit is the substantial detached garage, ideal for secure parking, storage, a workshop or potentially offering further possibilities depending on a purchaser's requirements.
Overall, 5 Franciscan Road is a superb opportunity to acquire a traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home with space, a sizeable plot and considerable future potential.
Ideally suited to families, upsizers or buyers wanting to put their own stamp on a property, this is a home where the plot and possibilities are every bit as appealing as the existing accommodation.
