Detached House

Property Description

Situated in the centre of this popular village, on the corner of Dobholes Lanes, an opportunity to acquire a highly individual character cottage style house with immense scope for refurbishment and improvement. 

 

Although fronting the main road, the access is off Dobholes Lane at the rear and there is a driveway leading to ample potential parking with consequent space for garaging, etc.  There is also space for structural extensions which ideally might include removal of the existing single storey kitchen and construction of a double storey building to include an enlarged kitchen and a bedroom above.  There is also an internal workshop which could be absorbed within the living accommodation to advantage and relatively easily.  An internal inspection will reveal the potential of the property, and is strongly recommended.

 

There are exposed beams to some ceilings, some multi paned windows and the property has a gas central heating system although the boiler is not operational.  The roof space has two gable end windows and although only accessed via a hatch, has potential for further accommodation if desired.
