Property description

If you've got 'green fingers' (from gardening that is!) then you will probably want to view this super character home because it has a very long rear garden. Not only that, there are useful outbuildings (including a most useful WC) in the rear yard that will also appeal to those who enjoy tinkering around in this lovely open space. The house has remained in the same family for donkeys years, so this is the first time that in a long while that it has been offered for sale. What is immediately apparent is that it is neat, clean and tidy and whereas some improvements have been made (double glazed windows and gas central heating), there is certainly scope for modernisation and improvement in order to realise its full potential. However, most importantly, the house is perfectly livable as it stands and that anybody wishing to purchase it could easily move in and renovate as finances allow. Yes, it is a bit of a time warp, but many original features remain including fireplaces and the original slate floor in the spacious entrance hall. There is even a cellar that you can stand up in (unless you are taller than 6' 3") and where better place to store your vintage wine at an ambient temperature! Downstairs, there are two separate reception rooms and a kitchen that you will almost certainly want to rip out and re-fit. The spacious upstairs bathroom has however been refitted and there is even space for a separate shower cubicle if required. Both bedrooms are 'doubles' and it may also be possible to squeeze a single bed into what we have called the study, although it would require building a cabin style bed over the stairs bulkhead and re-siting the gas central heating boiler. Outside, the house is separated from the road by a forecourted front garden with low box hedge and as previously stated, the world is your oyster regarding whatever you decide to do at the rear. It has been well maintained over the years and has colourful flowers, bushes and shrubs, plus concrete hardstanding for a greenhouse if required. This house is well placed for access to the town centre and it is offered with the benefit of having NO ONWARD CHAIN. So, if you fancy a project and demonstrating your DIY skills, you could transform what is already a good looking character home from a bygone era into a truly magical twenty-first century stunner!
