Description
If you're looking for a development/refurbishment project with scope to extend, (subject to consents) and create your own dream home, then this period semi-detached home on a double-width plot, tucked away in a sought after street, close to Market Harborough town centre, could be just the opportunity that you have yearned for.
Accommodation - Stepping in through the front door you will come in to the first of two reception rooms. Natural light floods the sitting room through the large bay window at the front. There is a feature fireplace with fitted cupboards and shelves as well as a handy cupboard tucked under the stairs. The dining room to the rear, features an open fire and enjoys a view of the garden. Stairs lead up from the corner of the room. The kitchen is equipped with a range of fitted wall and base units providing ample storage with plenty of work surface space above. There is a fitted oven and gas hob with space for a fridge freezer. The lobby beyond has plumbing and space for a washing machine, provides separate access to the garden beyond and leads into a handy downstairs guest cloakroom, which has WC and wash hand basin.
Upstairs the landing leads to two double bedrooms, the largest of which is at the front of the home and features a built-in wardrobe. The second bedroom enjoys a view of the garden, open skies to the west and countryside beyond the rooftops. The fitted wardrobe has been re-configured to provide secondary ladder access up to the loft space above. The family bathroom feels spacious and features a three piece suite comprising bath with shower over and open shelf partition, WC and wash hand basin, with a fitted airing cupboard to the corner.
Back in the landing the ladder access leads up to the loft space. Here you will find a vaulted ceiling, tongue and groove panelled walls, faux feature fire surround and mantle with Velux skylight to the rear that takes in the open skies and countryside views. An ideal space for occasional use, or to sit and watch the stars at night.
Outside - Enjoying a rare, double-width plot there is a hard-standing drive to the side providing off-road parking comfortably for three vehicles. The plot is thought suitable for extending the current accommodation, or potentially for the addition of another dwelling - both would be subject to planning permission and building regulations.
The driveway in turn leads to timber gates that, in turn provide access to a large timber garage/workshop. The timber garage/workshop features barn-style doors to the front and personnel door to the side, while there is a further timber workshop. The garden features an extensive paved terrace, and is otherwise laid to lawn with mature borders, hedges and trees. Tucked away in the corner of the garden is a further timber framed shed.
