A semi-detached, three-bedroom house requiring refurbishment and modernisation located in a popular village of Horrabridge. Available CHAIN FREE this property benefits from a private driveway, South facing garden, and views onto open fields.
Known locally as 'Cornish Units', this style of home was designed post war and built using a non-standard construction method and fabricated from pre-cast reinforced concrete (PRC). There are limited opportunities in terms of mortgage funding on these properties, and therefore tend to attract cash buyers. If the property qualifies for the appropriate certification, it is possible to undertake what is termed a 'repair', which can render them acceptable for mortgage purposes.
Through the front door you are welcomed by a hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. The living room is located at the front of the property and overlooks the front garden. At the rear of the property is the extended kitchen/dining room which enjoys views of the garden, an existing flue from a removed wood burner, and a characterful fitted kitchen. There is a separate utility room with services for a washing machine and a back door. Upstairs, the landing houses an airing cupboard with an electric immersion water tank. The first and second bedroom are comfortable double rooms and the third is a single room. The second bedroom enjoys the best of the southerly views across open fields. The bathroom includes an electric shower over bath.
Outside the property there is a private driveway and front garden with a lawn and selection of mature shrubs including a large Camelia. A path leads down the side of the house to the rear. The back garden is South facing and includes a selection of sheds and a block-built outhouse. The garden backs onto open fields which, combined with its sunny aspect, could be a pleasant space to enjoy.
The property is supplied by mains water, drainage and electricity. The property is fitted with uPVC double glazed windows throughout but has no heating system fitted. There has been some water ingress that we understand relates to the chimney which will need some attention.
