About this home

Situated in a well-established residential location, 142 Burns Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace home offering excellent potential for modernisation and personalisation. Extended to the front via an entrance porch and benefiting from a garage and private driveway alongside, this property presents an ideal opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or those looking to create a home tailored to their own tastes.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises an entrance porch leading into a spacious open-plan living/dining room, providing a versatile and sociable living space with direct access to the rear garden. The kitchen, positioned to the rear aspect, also enjoys garden access and offers scope for refurbishment and reconfiguration if desired.

To the first floor, the landing leads to two well-proportioned double bedrooms, a single bedroom suitable for use as a home office or nursery, and a family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a private rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with a generous patio area immediately adjoining the living/dining room and kitchen — ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. To the side aspect is a semi-detached garage and private driveway parking, providing valuable off-street parking and storage.

Offered for sale with the advantage of no onward chain, this home combines practical accommodation, excellent potential, and a highly convenient location close to local amenities and transport links.
