## Description

This 1950’s semi-detached family home is waiting for its new owner to take hold of this unfinished project and make it in to the fabulous home that it deserves to be.

The rooms are impressively dimensions and the living room has delightful bay window to the front.  The accommodation includes; entrance hall, large dual aspect living room, separate dining room/home office/play room and dual aspect kitchen to the ground floor. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a generously proportioned bathroom.  Externally there is a driveway to the front for several cars, a carport and a brick built garage.  The property is well set back from the road with a garden to the front and a good size garden to the rear that is not overlooked.  The property is sold with NO ONWARD CHAIN.

Please note that given the property is being sold needing full renovation we are not accepting any offers that are subject to survey on the property.
