About this home
The Home That’s Ready For Its Next Chapter – And Yours. A three-bedroom semi crying out for a glow-up, offering two double bedrooms, a good-sized garden, and a location that puts the hospital within easy walking distance. If you're looking for a project to sink your teeth into, where you can genuinely add value and put your own stamp on every room, then this could be just what you've been waiting for. It’s perfect for first-time buyers keen to get on the ladder, or perhaps a savvy investor looking for a solid rental opportunity in a popular spot. Step inside, and you’ll find a spacious living room that's full of potential. There's plenty of room for comfy sofas and a proper entertaining space. The kitchen is currently on the smaller side. But with imagination (and perhaps a wall removal, subject to professional advice), you could easily reconfigure to create a more open-plan kitchen-diner – a fantastic social hub. Alternatively, keep the living room large and focus on updating the existing kitchen to a modern, efficient space. The choice is yours! Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms. Two are proper doubles, offering good space for beds and storage, ideal for couples or families. The third is a versatile single room, perfect as a child's bedroom, a dedicated home office, or even a handy walk-in wardrobe if you're feeling fancy. The bathroom currently features a bath with an overhead shower and a separate WC, which is great for busy mornings. While it needs a refresh, imagine the possibilities for creating a contemporary family bathroom. Out the back, you’ll discover a good-sized garden – a blank canvas for anyone with green fingers or those who dream of weekend BBQs. It’s the sort of space that could easily become a tranquil retreat, a fun play area for kids, or a low-maintenance patio for al fresco dining.
Location-wise, you’re in a popular area, with West Cumberland Hospital less than a 10-minute walk away. Super handy whether you work there or simply appreciate the convenience. The surrounding neighbourhood is well-established, offering day-to-day amenities within easy reach and good transport links. This home offers a fantastic opportunity to create something truly special, tailored exactly to your tastes and needs. It’s ready for a fresh start, and with a little vision, it could be absolutely brilliant. Don't miss out on the chance to turn this house into your dream home. Get in touch to arrange a viewing!
