About this home
Description
Situated in the popular and highly regarded area of St Leonards, this three bedroom terraced property offers an exciting opportunity for buyers looking for a home they can modernise and personalise to their own taste. Requiring updating throughout, the property offers well-proportioned accommodation, good-sized bedrooms and useful outside space, with plenty of scope to create a comfortable and contemporary home.
The property is approached via an entrance hall, providing access to the principal living accommodation. The open-plan lounge/dining room is a particularly useful space, with plenty of room for both comfortable seating and dining furniture. A brick-built fireplace provides a focal point and adds a degree of character, whilst an understairs storage cupboard provides useful additional storage. From the dining area, there is access into a lean-to, which offers useful additional space and provides direct access to the rear courtyard.
The kitchen is positioned to the rear of the property and leads through to the bathroom, with a separate WC completing the ground floor accommodation. The layout provides good scope for modernisation and reconfiguration, subject to the necessary consents, allowing the next owner to put their own stamp on the property.
On the first floor are three well proportioned double bedrooms, making this a particularly versatile home for families, couples or those requiring additional space for home working or guests. The principal front bedroom benefits from a bay window, and a useful storage cupboard completes the accommodation.
Outside, the property enjoys an easy to maintain rear patio courtyard, providing a practical space for outdoor seating and entertaining without the extensive upkeep of a larger garden. A rear gate provides convenient access, whilst to the front there is residents' on-road parking.
