3 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

Dual living or homes with an Annex are, it appears, in demand currently. The problem is that there are not many around and those that are ? are either very expensive, or do not always have the convenience of being located in Town. This got me thinking. What if the large detached double garage at Alexander House was converted into an annex? The new accommodation would be as big as the one-bedroom home we have just sold very quickly in the town centre, but with the added bonus of being a few paces from the 365 acre commons. Naturally one would need to seek permission to do this, but with the asking price for the home being dramatically less than if it were already converted, there should be the budget (based on our buyer clients suggested criteria) to make the alteration. Time would almost certainly be a factor, if one were to do this themselves, I appreciate. The home is large enough to accommodate an extended family while works were carried out, so I guess that could be a compromise? Food for thought.



The home, as it stands, is very handsome and has presence. There is plenty of character both inside and out. The railings at the front frame the period and add a little grandeur. The entrance vestibule continues this theme as does the large front door. Entering the home, the bay and fireplace in the Siting room add to make the home individual and feel cosy. I am told that the family tend to gravitate to this space in the cooler months, so perhaps thats why? The rest of the year, most time is spent in the living/dining space behind ? as this flows beautifully in to the kitchen ? which is big. The utility room flows from here and is also big. There is a cloakroom off this, and access to the garden. On the first floor, Light floods in from the arched window and three double bedrooms and the bathroom are all, likewise, light and bright and accessed here. A door from the landing leads up to the loft room which makes for a perfect office or studio.



Outside, as you leave the utility, there is a covered yard. So handy to have this for boots and coats after being out on the commons, or for wet & sandy items after a trip to the beach!. Also, for drying laundry in the day, or, with a little modification is a great space for outdoor cooking, socialising, or for the pets to get out - without getting soaked. With a lot of modification, one might enclose it with glass and open the kitchen to it? More food for thought. A couple of steps lead up to the lawn and deck. These face South, so are bathed in sun all day. Flower beds border the path to the double garage and rear pedestrian gate.



The garage is approximately 30 m2 (322 sq ft) and features an electric up and over door, a slate tiled roof with good height inside and, light and power. There are pretty, stone elevations and Marland brick coins that mimic the residence. As garages go, it is quite attractive. Another reason I feel this could make a great ancillary to the property. It could even have its own garden without impacting the existing too dramatically.



The location is so strong. Behind the home one can access the Commons, a little further, but the old bowling green (on the commons) is just down the road from the front. The local supermarket is a short stroll away, as is the nearest Bus stop. Passing either of these, the walk is level into town. I choose to walk into town along Warren Lane and through Rack Park ? because it is so peaceful and beautiful. There is a slight gradient at the top, but is otherwise, also level ? through the park.



So, it has it all then? Well, not quite. It does have the potential to have it all though, and when you need or want it all and it cannot be found ? this may be the next best thing!
