Detailed Description

Description
This handsome semi-detached period house is situated in a sought after location where it benefits from a 200ft south facing garden giving direct access to the banks of the Royal Military Canal. The property has been in the ownership of the same family for many years and it is fair to say that it does now require general updating and improvement. With a wealth of original features and very comfortably proportioned accommodation, it has the potential to provide an exceptionally comfortable family home, is considered well worthy of any expenditure required and has been priced accordingly.

The accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to the sitting room with its cosy open fire, the separate ding room and kitchen breakfast room, both of which open onto the garden. On the first floor there are two bedrooms plus a bathroom and shower room and on the second floor there are two further bedrooms, the one to the rear enjoying views to the sea.

The 200 (plus) ft garden is a tranquil haven, incorporates various sheds and a former garage/workshop, fruit trees etc and also benefits from direct access to the Royal Military Canal. The house also has the unusual advantage of off street parking.

For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.
