Property description
Carefully extended and modernised in 2014, a versatile 2 bedroom quadrant house in a small enclosed garden set in a cul-de-sac corner location towards the open countryside of Windmill Hill.
Description
This individual property, which was built in about 1983 by national developers Barratts in a detached cluster of 4 two storey homes, has a particularly impressive ground floor footprint with the option of a ground floor bedroom or separate study/dining room. The kitchen, bathroom, gas heating system with thermostatically controlled radiators, uPVC double glazing with night ventilators and white panelled internal doors with chrome finished handles were all installed new in late 2014/early 2015.

Additional characteristics include the naturally screened garden on two sides, majority smooth finished ceilings and twin aspects to both the bedrooms. There is also a useful loft.
