Conveniently situated close to the town centre, this well-presented end-terraced two-bedroom home enjoys the added benefits of owned solar panels, a private courtyard garden, and off-road parking.
40 Meddon Street is a deceptively spacious end-terraced period home that has been extended to the rear, offering well-presented accommodation over two storeys. The property benefits from a positive input ventilation system, PVC double glazing, gas central heating, and owned solar panels, which provide a useful annual income.
Conveniently located within a short walk of the town centre, the property is considered by the selling agents to be an ideal purchase for first-time buyers or, alternatively, an excellent investment opportunity.
The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance hall with a staircase rising to the first floor, leading to a split-level living space. The lower level features a comfortable lounge with a window seat and a shelved alcove, while steps lead up to the dining area, which has open access to the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units providing ample storage and appliance space, with a door opening onto the rear courtyard.
The first floor offers two double bedrooms and a spacious, well-appointed bathroom fitted with a three-piece suite. A useful cupboard houses the gas-fired boiler, which supplies the domestic hot water and central heating systems.
To the side of the property is a single parking space, currently rented by the sellers at a cost of £43 per calendar month. The sellers advise that this arrangement can be transferred to the new owner. Additional restricted on-street parking is available to the front of the property, while nearby car parks offer residents' permit parking.
To the rear is a low-maintenance, enclosed courtyard that enjoys a high degree of privacy, making it an ideal space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or pets.
