About
*Importantly, the property is being offered to cash buyers only due to spray foam insulation within the roof space, which is likely to make the property unsuitable for conventional mortgage lending.* Hamwic Independent Estate Agents offer for sale this substantial two double bedroom semi-detached home, positioned within a sought-after residential area of Totton and presenting an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to undertake a comprehensive refurbishment project.
The property requires significant updating both internally and externally.
However, the house offers a surprisingly generous footprint, with two separate reception rooms, a rear aspect kitchen, conservatory, useful side storage area, two spacious double bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom.
Outside, there is a particularly generous frontage with a large driveway providing off-road parking, together with a good-sized front garden.
The rear garden is mature and requires landscaping, but offers plenty of space and potential for a new owner to completely redesign the outside area.
Within the garden are two established apple trees, understood to be over 70 years old and still producing fruit.
One is a Bramley cooking apple tree, while the other is understood to be a Ribston Pippin eating apple, a heritage variety dating back to the early 1700s.
Neither tree is understood to be subject to a Tree Preservation Order, but they may be of particular interest to buyers who appreciate established planting and the potential offered by the garden.
The existing conservatory is also in poor condition and should be regarded as requiring substantial repair or replacement.
For buyers prepared to take on the work required, this is a property with genuine potential to become a spacious and attractive home in a popular Totton location.
