About
It is becoming increasingly rare to be able to acquire one of the original houses on Gaddum Road that has not been recently extended and refurbished, especially one that enjoys such an enviable position on the road.
We therefore have no doubt that the availability of 23 Gaddum Road will excite a great deal of interest and would strongly recommend that buyers waste no time in arranging a viewing.
Although the house would benefit from a programme of refurbishment, it is perfectly habitable so buyers looking for a home that they can move into and improve over time will be just as interested as those purchasers who are looking for a home that, subject to planning consent, they can extend, remodel, and refurbish, dramatically enlarge and still retain extremely large gardens.
In our opinion, this house sits in one of the best positions on this sought after road, set well back from the road with a wide frontage and with an excellent sized back garden which is not overlooked.
Located approximately halfway down the road on the left, the slight bend on the road means that the plot is both wider and deeper at the front, and it sits opposite the entrance to Stanhope Road so has a pleasant outlook to the front.
Although we are promoting the house as one which will appeal to those buyers looking for a redevelopment / refurbishment project because of its great potential, the house in its current form is well maintained and fully functional.
A family, who would prefer to take the step up to the next level and acquire a four bedroomed detached family house with a large garden that they can live in and enjoy now, with a view to carrying out improvements and alterations over time once their budget permits, will be especially interested in this house.
Gaddum Road is a highly regarded residential road that runs between Bow Green Road and Bow Lane, a road with only detached family homes, many of which have been extended and refurbished.
Some of the best houses on the road are valued at circa £1.75m.
Huge potential therefore exists for any buyer to profit from their improvements and add value and appeal to an already highly desirable family home.
