A grand semi of promise and proportion

Tightly held by the same family since 1961, this striking attached residence offers the discerning buyer an opportunity of unquestionable appeal. Solidly constructed with generous proportions hidden behind an intimate facade, the home is in need of partial enhancement. With the potential of reconfiguration to embrace the level rear garden and possible extension to a second level with approval, the comfortable interiors are liveable as is. There are two large double bedrooms with polished floors and soaring ceilings, whilst there are also separate lounge and dining areas. There is a sunroom, an original kitchen with gas appliances and a tired bathroom with a bath. Additional features include polished floors, soaring ceilings, an ornate marble fireplace and picture rails and rare '2 car' parking. A short walk to cafes, shops and transport, it is also metres to harbourside parks and the water's edge.
