Features and description

  • Freehold
This three bedroom detached family home occupies a generous plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac location off Tythorn Drive which itself is half way down Shackerdale Road, a sought after residential area in close proximity to the West Knighton border. Conveniently located for a wide variety of local amenities the home is also within the catchment of a number of highly regarded local schools for all age groups. The accommodation does need comprehensive modernisation and refurbishment throughout but the potential for any buyer to add value through renovation and even more through extension is massive.

The accommodation itself includes an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a practical under stairs storage cupboard.

The main lounge has a window to the front elevation and is a generous space. The kitchen and dining area sit open plan to each other. In fact, the whole of the ground floor could be opened up to create a modern space. It does not take much imagination to see that with modern kitchen and updated decor that this area could be fantastic. Although currently a window, a buyer could put a set of patio doors off-the dining area that would open up access to the garden and in turn providing a superb entertaining space.

A door from the kitchen takes you through to a side access which has an gardener’s WC, a brick built store and a door that leads into the garage. A door into a lean to offers access to the garden.

To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, the principal bedroom has a window to the front elevation, with the second bedroom overlooking the garden. The access to the third bedroom off the landing is currently blocked off, as the previous owner, knocked through form the principal bedroom to create a dressing area. However, this could relatively easily be reversed to create a proper third bedroom which could be used as a work space if required.

Finally, on the first floor, is a shower room, which would again require updating.

There is no doubt that this is a project but with a little time, thought and attention this could once again become a stunning family home. Internal viewing is a must for those looking for properties that require refurbishment or for those wanting to buy a home they can completely put their own mark on.
