An extended two-bedroom family home located in the popular village of Histon and offering further expansion potential subject to the relevant consents being granted.
This well-proportioned semi-detached home was originally constructed circa 1945 and subsequently extended to the rear to provide valuable additional reception space. The property occupies an attractive plot of approximately 0.07 acres and offers well-balanced accommodation arranged over two floors.
The ground floor comprises a comfortable living room, together with a particularly spacious kitchen/dining area providing an excellent day-to-day living and entertaining space. An adjoining conservatory enjoys views and access towards the rear garden. Also situated on the ground floor is a useful study, together with a wet room.
To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, served by a fully tiled family bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with a panelled P-shaped bath with shower over, low-level WC and wash hand basin with vanity unit beneath.
The property occupies a plot extending to approximately 0.07 acres. There is parking available to the front, whilst the rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and benefits from a variety of mature trees and established shrubs along the borders, providing a pleasant degree of greenery and privacy. A paved patio area, directly accessible from the conservatory, provides an ideal space for outdoor seating and entertaining.
Whilst the property would benefit from sympathetic modernisation and improvement, it provides an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to update and personalise the accommodation to their own requirements. There is also potential for further extension to the side, subject to obtaining the necessary planning and other relevant consents.
