This spacious established property presents with rendered elevations, and a tiled roof. It is presented to the market at a price to allow potential purchasers the opportunity to personalise their own home, owing to the fact that it now needs updating and refurbishment. Instead of paying top money, and buying a home which has been finished to someone else's specification, which may not necessarily appeal to everyone, the purchaser of this home can finish it to their own tastes. It has UPVC double glazing and electric storage heaters, and represents an excellent opportunity for someone wishing to 'put their own stamp' on a property, in this well served and popular village, with a station, and convenient for the A14. This property is being marketed with NO CHAIN, and therefore viewing is recommended at the earliest opportunity.
