Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION ** This is a light and spacious Three Bedroom Semi-Detached house in a highly popular residential area.

To the front of the property is a wide driveway which leads up to the Detached Single Garage, so you'll have ample parking for 2-3 cars at the property.

To the ground floor is the Entrance Hall with storage under the stairs that lead up to the first floor Landing, and to your right is the generous Lounge with bay window overlooking the front of the property. Across the full width of the rear of the property is the Dining Kitchen with light flooding in through two windows overlooking the rear Garden. To the first floor are two Double Bedrooms - one with built-in wardrobes - a Single Bedroom and the Family Bathroom, making this the ideal family home.

To the rear of the property is a good-size enclosed Garden with lawn and two patio spaces that are just perfect for catching the sunshine through the day. The Detached Garage has light, power and an up-and-over garage door.

There is a gas back boiler behind the fire in the Lounge which supplies central heating to some of the rooms, with others having wall mounted heaters.

To arrange a viewing of this property please call the team in our Market Drayton office.
