Guide Price £700,000 £750,000. A spacious three bedroom
terrace house for sale chain free positioned on the Bushwood
Borders. The property requires renovation but retains a host of
original features, and includes two reception rooms, three double
bedrooms and a large garden. Bushwood is known for its exceptional
amenities and community feel.
An exceptional development opportunity with the potential to
create a superb family home, the property is located on a tree
lined residential street with no through traffic. As you would
expect from a property of this type, there are attractive
architectural details to the fa ade, including full height,
mullioned bay windows and a corbelled stone arch above the porch. A
small front garden provides privacy from the street and leads to a
glazed outer door, which takes you into a small porch. The porch
retains its original ornate tiles and provides access to the main
timber and glazed front door.
Through the front door, you ll find a generous hallway with
high ceilings, elaborate plaster mouldings, deep timber architraves
and skirting boards, along with intricate turned balusters and
newel posts to the stairs.
The first room to your left is a large through reception room
which can be accessed through either of two glazed doors. Split
into two distinct spaces separated by a squared arch, there s
potential for increased separation into two independent rooms if
required. The first half of the room, to the front of the house,
benefits from the large south facing bay window which brings in
abundant natural light. There s an original fireplace and
impressively deep, multi tiered coving, highlighting the property s
hidden Edwardian grandeur.
Through the arch into the second half of the reception room
you ll find a twin fireplace to the one in the front, next to which
is an original built in storage and display cabinet. There s also a
door leading to the rear garden which includes stained glass panels
and a large transom above, providing more natural light into this
large family reception dining room.
Return to the hall now and you ll note the built in under
stairs storage cupboards, before entering the morning room through
an original four panel timber door, a feature retained in many of
the property s rooms. This additional reception room features a
large timber fireplace and a bay window which looks out to the side
return of the rear garden.
The morning room leads into the kitchen which has a large
window facing the side of the property and currently includes a
series of laminated cabinets and worksurfaces. A door leads to a
utility space which incorporates the combi gas boiler, providing
hot water and central heating via radiators in most rooms. Through
another door is a downstairs WC, which has its own door to the rear
garden. From the kitchen there s also a small vestibule which
includes plumbing for a washing machine and leads out to the rear
garden through a part glazed door.
The 80ft garden exceptionally large for a property in this
area has the potential to become a fabulous family and entertaining
space. There are already mature shrubs and trees, which afford
privacy and could form the basis of a fabulous urban garden.
Back through the kitchen and morning room now, into the
hallway and up the stairs to the spacious split level
landing.
Straight ahead at the top of the stairs is bedroom three which
is accessed via a short hallway, giving the room a sense of privacy
and separation from the other rooms on this floor. This is a large
double room which looks out onto the rear garden. Back to the
landing and the next room, on the right, is the family bathroom,
which has a pair of windows facing the side of the property. There
s currently a traditional three piece suit comprising a WC, a
pedestal basin and bathtub.
Heading up the small set of stairs to the second level you ll
find bedroom two, to the right. This is another double room looking
out towards the rear garden, currently fitted with built in storage
in one of the chimney alcoves and an attractive cast iron
fireplace.
As you return to the landing, you ll see another useful built
in storage cupboard before entering bedroom one. Located at the
front of the property and encompassing its full width, this is a
generous double room. Benefitting from the south facing bay window
and a second window above the porch, this is a bright room with the
potential to be a real haven. There s another ornate cast iron
fireplace and the alcoves to either side would be ideal for bespoke
built in wardrobes.
Strip away the current cosmetics and imagine the incredible
opportunities this spacious property has to offer something to
build for yourself, or as a fantastic investment.
