This property is offered for sale through the Modern Method of Auction which is operated by iamsold Limited.

This spacious three bedroom end terrace townhouse is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous plot within a sought after residential area. The plot would allow scope for substantial extension both to the side and rear of the home. The property is within easy reach of a wide range of local amenities with supermarkets, shops, eateries, medical and leisure centres all in close proximity. The home has been well maintained with both kitchen and bathroom having been refitted and a ground floor WC added, however some general cosmetic updating maybe required.

The accommodation includes an entrance area with stairs rising to the first floor and a door that opens to the main reception room which is a generous lounge diner. The lounge diner is a spacious dual aspect room with a bow window to the front elevation and a set of sliding patio doors that open to a conservatory at the rear. A focal point to the room is provided by a wall mounted electric fire set onto a cladded fireplace. A door from the lounge leads into the kitchen.

The kitchen, again, is a good size space and has been refitted to include a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless steel sink and drainer. Integral appliances include a gas hob, built-in oven and microwave and a dishwasher. There is also space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen also has space for a small table and chairs.

From the kitchen a door leads into a lobby area, which has a useful under stairs storage cupboard. A door through to a ground floor WC and wash hand basin and a door that accesses the side of the home and can be used as an alternative access into the home.

To the first floor, there are three good size bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a window to the front elevation and has a wall of fitted wardrobes. the second bedroom overlooks the garden to the rear and again has built-in storage. The third bedroom is situated toward the front of the property and also has an over stairs storage cupboard/wardrobe.

Finally, there is a refitted family bathroom comprising a three piece white suite to include a bath with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

To the front of the home a large gravelled driveway provides ample off-road parking and would comfortably accommodate a caravan or motorhome if required. You will also notice the solar panels which are owned by the property and not leased. These panels improve the home's energy efficiency and reduce bills.

There is gated side access to the rear where you find an impressive garden. The garden is largely shingle and interspersed with a plethora of shrubs and planted beds. The garden also has a summer house, greenhouse and timber storage shed. The garden is relatively low maintenance but it is the scope to extend that maybe of most interest. A large extension could be added without comprising the outside space and subject to local planning.

This really is a home packed with future potential and internal viewing is essential to understand the space it already provides and the future possibilities it may hold.
