Description
You enter on the ground floor into a spacious hallway. This then leads through to the brand new modern kitchen in front and the large lounge/diner to the right hand side. Moving upstairs, the first floor is home to three bedrooms, two of which are good sized doubles; as well as a new bathroom and stairs leading up to an additional room. (Please note the vendor has no paperwork relating to this as it was built a long time before the current owner purchased the property).
To the rear there is a generous garden ready for an eager, green-fingered gardener to transform; plus there is also a spacious driveway for multiple vehicles to the front.
Upper Road is a popular area as it is not only a couple of minutes' walk from Mote Park but it's also within easy reach of the town centre. It's also close to Park Way Primary School, which was rated 'good' in their latest Ofsted (January 2015).
Offered with no onward chain this property will not hang around.
