"A MATURE SEMI DETACHED HOUSE, WORTHY OF FURTHER IMPROVEMENT WHICH STANDS IN A PLEASANT GARDEN BACKING ONTO THE ROCKFIELD RECREATION FIELDS, WITH A VIEW EXTENDING TO NEIGHBOURING WHITE HILL. THE PROPERTY FRONTS A CONVENIENT CUL-DE-SAC AND IS LITERALLY A MINUTES WALK FROM A BUS ROUTE.
The property affords: Canopy Porch, Sitting Room, Kitchen/Breakfast/Diner, Garden/Hobbies Room, Bathroom & 3 good Bedrooms. Ample parking and space for a Garage (subject to consent). Recently installed Gas CH boiler.
Ideal First Buy or Family Home.
Overmonnow is one of the towns three suburbs that lies on the west side of Monmouth, being served by a local shuttle bus route (to the town centre) whilst a modern junior school, is within a ten minute stroll of our client's property. The lower end of Monnow Street and several supermarkets, the towns park (Chippenham) can all be reached in a further five minutes by foot.
The house was, we believe, originally constructed to the local authorities specification in the 1930's and was initially occupied by our client's Grandmother who rented the property which the late Mrs Arnold took over the tenancy and subsequently purchased in 1969. We are advised that following this the fist major improvement was the completion of the driveway and the Garden/Hobbies Room was built subsequently in the 1980's. More recently the gas central heating was installed in 2010 and replaced the night storage heating system, which had originally been installed some 40 years earlier. In our opinion, these homes are known for their solidity, the brickwork in particular is very hard, but they do lend themselves to enlargement, often with the creation of a single or two storey extension to the rear, for which planning consent may be necessary.
