Property description
THE PROPERTY The property is a natural stone built early twentieth century (believed to be 1908) terraced house having a slate roof and aluminium sash style double glazed windows with brick reveals.
It is probably one of the very few that have not been extensively enlarged or refurbished and therefore offers the potential to do just that. The accommodation consists of entrance hall with staircase to landing. Off the hall at the front of the house is a sitting room with a wonderful original fireplace, there is a kitchen and dining room at the back along with a boot room and access into the garden. At first floor level the bedroom across the front of the house is an excellent size with two windows and a fireplace feature, whilst at the back is a single bedroom and a bathroom with white suite. Near neighbours have created impressive kitchen/dining extensions to the rear (in the case of Number 41) so we would be confident that obtaining planning permission would not be difficult. The original walled garden at the front of the house is the only one in the row that has not been opened up to create room for parking.
The house is offered on to the market with no onward chain and therefore an early appointment to view is strongly recommended.
