A wonderful opportunity to purchase a three bedroom semi-detached house situated off a country lane in the favoured village of Charlton Musgrove.
The approach to the property is through a five bar gate onto a gravelled driveway with space for several cars. The garden is a particular feature being secluded and mature with a wildlife pond, large shed/workshop, area of lawn and paved seating area, all enclosed by stock (dog safe) fencing.
A covered porch area has a lockable storage room ideal for wood and coal. The front door opens to the entrance hall with the bathroom conveniently positioned to the left. Straight ahead lies the kitchen, although somewhat dated, there is a good range of storage units and a large built-in larder. The sitting room has a high efficiency Jetmaster fire as its focal point, and an archway opens to a conservatory/garden room with a solid roof providing all year round use. Moving upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all of which enjoy a pleasant outlook.
Whilst the property has been cared for, it would benefit from some updating which will add to its appeal and present an excellent opportunity to create a home to your taste and style.
