About this home

Nestled in the popular area of Staplegrove, this semi-detached house on Rectory Road presents an exciting opportunity for someone looking for a property with excellent potential. Offering two reception rooms, three well-proportioned bedrooms, a downstairs WC and a useful utility room, the property provides a practical layout with plenty of scope to modernise and improve to suit individual needs.

The property would benefit from updating and offers significant potential for extension to both the side and rear, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. Neighbouring properties have already taken advantage of their plots by extending, demonstrating the potential within the surrounding area, while this property provides an excellent opportunity for a buyer to create a larger, more contemporary family home.

A particular feature is the generous rear garden, extending approximately 100ft, providing an impressive amount of outdoor space and considerable potential for further development. Subject to planning and any required permissions, the size of the garden could allow for the addition of outbuildings such as a home office, workshop, gym, studio or garden entertaining area, while still retaining a substantial garden space.

This is a property with considerable potential and would suit a buyer looking for a genuine project, with the opportunity to refurbish, extend to the side and rear, and make use of the substantial approximately 100ft garden.

Utility Room - 10'3" x 5'7" - The utility room provides practical space with a countertop and fitted cabinets and boiler. It has a large window allowing in natural light, its functional purpose within the home.
