Description
Carrwood is a highly sought-after residential road positioned within a very well regarded section of the town. The vast selection of amenities, transport links and schools are all within walking distance, making this a lovely location to raise a family or downsize, as many have. This property occupies a super plot, which boasts a wonderful southerly aspect to the rear garden, giving all day sunshine and creating light and spacious feeling accommodation.
The accommodation offers great versatility and includes three/four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an ensuite shower room to the principal bedroom. The ground floor offers a large lounge, dining room, study, fourth bedroom or additional reception room and a lovely breakfast kitchen, along with a downstairs WC and a utility room. The first floor offers all three bedrooms, the two bathrooms and a large linen cupboard.
To the front of the property is a formal grass lawn and a block paved driveway for several vehicles, leading to the attached garage with an up-and-over door. The rear garden is both wide and deep, and has been attractively landscaped to include a block paved patio for entertaining.
The property is offered for sale with no onward chain and is ripe for improvement, modernisation and extension (SSTP), as many of the neighbouring homes have been.
