Open house - Saturday 28th - appointment only Occupying a generous corner plot, this three bedroom semi-detached home combines character features; including parquet flooring and a log burning stove plus a spacious open plan kitchen/diner, west-facing garden and large driveway.

With planning permission already in place, it also offers clear potential for the future.

Believed to date from the 1950s/60s and updated by the current owners since 2015, the property combines character with practical space.

The sitting room sits to the right and features reclaimed parquet flooring, a fireplace and French doors opening onto the garden terrace.

To the left, the 20ft kitchen/dining room forms the hub of the home, with ample space for everyday family life and entertaining, flowing through to a conservatory overlooking the garden.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, two good-sized doubles and a third bedroom/study, along with the family bathroom.

The south-westerly facing garden wraps around the side of the house, making the most of the corner position and offering a generous lawn and terrace for outdoor dining.

There is also driveway parking to the front.

The property benefits from full planning permission (ref: 21/01851/ful) to divide the plot and construct a separate three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached house over three floors.
