An opportunity to acquire an individual detached family home located in an established position on the edge of Cirencester town with great access to all of the amenities and facilities that Cirencester has to offer as well as Cirencester Park. The accommodation benefits from flexible and light living space to the ground floor with large lounge to front, family room leading to the rear garden and a light modern fitted kitchen/diner to the rear elevation with good access to the enclosed rear garden. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom with large open landing area.
