The property offers a traditional layout, with two separate reception rooms on the ground floor, providing flexibility for both everyday living and entertaining.
Whether you envisage a comfortable lounge to the front and a separate dining room to the rear, or a space that better suits your own lifestyle, there is plenty of opportunity to make the layout work for you.
Despite the need for some updating, the property retains elements of its original character, including a fireplace and decorative ceiling roses within the reception rooms.
These details provide a reminder of the home's charm and offer an excellent starting point for anyone looking to blend traditional features with a more contemporary finish.
To the rear, the kitchen is complemented by a separate lobby / utility area, providing useful additional space and offering scope to consider how best to arrange the ground floor to suit your needs.
Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, alongside a particularly generous family bathroom.
The accommodation provides a practical foundation, with the opportunity to refresh and personalise the interiors to your own taste.
Outside, the rear garden is a manageable space that can be enjoyed without the upkeep of a larger plot.
It offers room for a seating area, potted plants or a little outdoor space to unwind, while street parking is available to the front.
For first-time buyers, this is an opportunity to take on a home and gradually create something of your own, rather than paying a premium for someone else's finish.
For investors, the combination of two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and scope for improvement makes the property well worth considering as a potential addition to a rental portfolio, subject to the usual checks and refurbishment costs.
With its traditional layout, remaining character features and opportunity to improve, this is a property where a little vision could go a long way.
