Set on a corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac of Watlington, this two-bedroom semi-detached home offers a practical, compact layout and scope to add value. The sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room provide sensible everyday living space, while the south-west facing rear garden delivers good afternoon and evening light. A single garage and off-street parking add convenience in this small-town location close to local amenities and highly rated schools.
The property presents clear opportunities to improve and extend subject to planning permission; the current footprint and wrap-around plot make this realistic for anyone wanting to create more space. The accommodation is presented in generally tidy condition but buyers should allow for modernisation in places to reflect personal taste and to maximise resale value. Services and installations have not been tested, so buyers should verify working order and specification.
A notable point for investigation: the listing mentions a gas-fired boiler and gas central heating in the description, but other data records electric storage heating as the main system. Prospective purchasers should confirm the actual heating fuel and system when viewing. The house is freehold, in a very affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — appealing for first-time buyers or purchasers seeking a straightforward investment with improvement potential.
