Piink are delighted to be marketing this extremely well presented and maintained property, which has been a warm family home for many years.
The owners are now looking to downsize and have found a new property and so a quick sale at a very realistic price is offered.
From the front garden to the rear garden; from the Lounge through all the bedrooms, this house has been well looked after and you can walk in and make this your home with absolutely no work at all.
In addition, the kitchen was totally refitted approximately 18 months ago and a larger utility area, with downstairs cloakroom constructed recently too.
The property has been extended over the garage, some years ago and fits in well with the existing lie of the house, showing that it hasn't been over extended.
This is a special house! I suggest an early viewing!
