We recommend that you review the Floor Plans where we believe a great alteration to the property would be the installation of a third bedroom (ground Floor) and Ensuite bathroom. This includes the use and installation of a window to the Ensuite (current rear wall of garage) and then the utilisation of the current windows of the Dining Area and a door installed. Take a look whilst you view and we can let you know about what we feel could be done to further enhance the property and value.
