3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Newlands Drive, Ripon HG4

A great opportunity to live in a popular residential area of Ripon, ideal for young couples, families and professionals with excellent amenities, schools for all ages and delightful countryside walks nearby.

The current owners began their tenure by carrying out a program of modernisation and refurbishment, adding practical and thoughtful features to create a delightful home. The downstairs layout was re-configured to provide a cosy sitting room and an attractive dining kitchen, where the sociable, open-plan layout is more conducive to modern life and entertaining. With gas central heating and double glazing, the property offers bright and flexible accommodation, combining tasteful décor and large windows to make the most of the natural light. The property could now suit a wide range of buyers who appreciate a low maintenance, ready-made home in a great location. However, those wishing to extend the property will note the potential allowed by the generous rear garden and roof space, subject to the necessary consents.

Solo say: The perennial semi-detached house style still holds great appeal in todays property market for a wide range of buyers and this excellent example combines modern features with typical design attributes from the housing boom of the late 1960s.
