Agent's Note

**Development Potential:** Given the sheer size of the plot on the corner there is massive potential not only to significantly extend the existing dwelling but also potential for separate development on the plot, subject to obtaining the necessary local authority planning consents. Early viewing is highly advised to appreciate the scale of accommodation and space on offer.

* **Entrance Hall:** A spacious and welcoming entrance naturally lit, featuring stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the primary ground floor accommodation.

* **Living Room:** A bright, dual-aspect reception room featuring large windows looking out onto the expansive gardens. An ideal space for family gatherings.

* **Kitchen:** Requiring refitting, currently comprising a range of base and wall units, sink unit, and windows overlooking the rear garden.

* **Utility Room:** A practical dedicated space situated off the kitchen, with plumbing for appliances and a personal door leading out to the side/rear plot.

* **Guest WC:** Conveniently located off the hallway, fitted with a low-level WC and wash hand basin.

Outside & Grounds
