Effortless family living a short walk from schools and close to shops and main roads, with characterful exposed beams, a one-bedroom flatlet for rental income, three beds, 1.5 baths.
This property is a rare find for anyone who is looking for a home that works for their family and their budget. It is set up for an easy life, within walking distance of local schools and just a quick drive to the shops, doctors, and main roads. The price has just been further reduced, and the owners are ready to consider any reasonable offers.
Inside, the house has a lot of heart. You will immediately notice the character in the exposed wooden ceiling beams and the little historical details that make it feel like a home, not just a building. The layout is practical, with a comfortable lounge that leads out to a patio and a separate dining area for family dinners. The kitchen is a classic, solid space with plenty of wooden cupboards, a hob, and an extractor fan. There are three decent sized bedrooms, one with built in cupboards, a full bathroom, and a separate toilet to keep things moving on busy mornings.
The big bonus here is the one bedroom flatlet. It has its own prepaid meter, making it a perfect setup to bring in some rental income right away or to give extended family their own space without them being underfoot.
The property is fully fenced with razor wire and burglar bars, so you can actually relax at home. There is a lock up carport plus secure parking for two more cars. The yard is easy to look after, so you will not be spending your whole weekend on maintenance. It is a secure, character filled home with plenty of room for you to move in and add your own personal touch over time.
