Offered to the market on the popular Cherry Tree Road is this characterful home, presenting a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on a property with genuine potential. While the house does require an element of modernisation throughout, it offers an exciting canvas for renovators, developers, or those simply looking to create their dream family home at a more accessible price point.

One of the real highlights of the property is the extended kitchen and diner, providing a generous and versatile space that forms a fantastic starting point for the heart of the home. With a little vision, this area offers real scope to create a stylish, open-plan family space perfect for modern living and entertaining.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with a beautifully landscaped rear garden offering an attractive and well-maintained outdoor space — a lovely contrast to the work required internally, and proof of the pride taken in the property. A charming custom-built summer house provides a wonderful additional space, ideal for a home office, hobby room, or simply a relaxing retreat away from the main house. A further outbuilding to the side of the property offers valuable additional storage or workshop potential, adding practicality and flexibility to the overall package.

This is a rare chance to acquire a home with an already impressive extended footprint and superb outdoor features, in need of updating internally to bring it up to modern standards — ideal for buyers seeking a project with strong long-term potential.

In summary, this Cherry Tree Road property offers a fantastic opportunity for those willing to invest a little time and effort, with an extended kitchen/diner, landscaped garden, summer house, and outbuilding all combining to offer excellent scope and value.

Early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the potential this property has to offer.
