North Street, Stoke-sub-hamdon, TA14

THE AGENT SAYS... 40 North Street is a charming traditional cottage with potential to be a stunning home. The property has great proportions with generous room sizes and scope to change the layout to better suit modern life. In need of complete renovation, the cottage offers a superb opportunity to create your perfect home in a great location. THE PROPERTY A small lobby opens into the main entrance hall from where doors lead to the ground floor accommodation and stairs rise to the first floor. At the front, the sitting room has great proportions and is centred around a fireplace that could be made into a lovely feature. The dining room is also a great size with a replace, although this would need reinstating once the gas fire is removed. Adjoining the dining room is the kitchen which is a goodsize room but has potential for the layout to be improved during renovation. Similar properties have removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room to create a more open space. There is also a dilapidated sun room attached to the kitchen that could be removed and replaced with an extension (subject to planning). If this were done there may be the opportunity to include a WC on the ground oor (the current WC is outside). On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a large family bathroom. Currently bedroom three is only accessible through bedroom two but the frst floor layout, generous room sizes and double windows mean it should be relatively simple to reconfigure to three independent bedrooms. OUTSIDE Attached to the rear of the cottage is a small store and outside WC. The property will be sold with two garages located in a block at the rear (on a 125 year lease) and behind is the garden, which is accessed via a right of way over a neighbouring garden/property. The garden is laid to lawn , with low post and rail fencing with shrubs in front. There is also a timber summerhouse that is covered with clematis and other climbers. SERVICES Mains water, drainage and electricity. Gas-fired central heating via back boiler (currently disconnected).
