A charming semi-detached property on an impressive plot, offering considerable scope for improvement, subject to the usual consents. This attractive three bedroom home is in a convenient, central location and has the considerable advantage of a driveway and detached garage.

Having had just three owners since construction, this distinctive home dates from the 1920's and was built by renowned local builder J.T.Bushell for his own occupation. Positioned on a sizeable plot, the property is set well back from Waverley Road behind mature hedges which offer a lovely degree of privacy and a path from the road leads through an attractive garden to a sunny porch and the front door. The entrance hall leads to a bright dining room at the front of the house, a generously proportioned space with a large bay window and a lovely Arts and Crafts style fireplace. To the rear there is an impressive living room, with a glazed door through to a timber conservatory, and the two reception rooms can be connected by opening bi-fold timber doors between them. The dual aspect kitchen is well planned, with a good range of timber wall and base units and it has views of the garden and a door to the side which provides access outside. A useful shower room positioned off the entrance hall completes the ground floor accommodation.
The property has three bedrooms, the largest of which is particularly impressive in size and has a pretty tiled fireplace and two large sash windows overlooking the garden. The second bedroom is similarly light, with front aspect views, and all three bedrooms have fitted cupboards for storage. The family bathroom is accessed from the landing and has a window to the side of the house. There is an extensive loft, accessed by ladder and fitted with several rooflights. Currently providing useful storage space, this offers exciting potential for conversion subject to the usual consents to create further bedroom accommodation if needed. The beautiful garden has been much loved by the current owners, and is well stocked with a wide range of mature plants, shrubs and trees. Landscaped to create several large lawns, it is a lovely space in which to relax, and the exceptional size of the plot not only affords an excellent degree of seclusion, but would also allow extension of the house if needed without compromising on outside space (STPP).
Off-street parking for at least two vehicles is provided in a driveway, and there is a detached brick garage to the side of the house.
