The traditional semi-detached house has been extended and adapted over the years to provide generously proportioned three bedroom accommodation and which has the unusual benefit of a larger than average plot, mechanics workshop and six garages; all of which, historically, has been a combined home and workplace. The workshop is business rated, keeping the opportunity for a similar enterprise and includes inspection pits, 3-phase electricity.

Extending to one side, are six garages and stores offering lettable or owner occupied storage opportunities and perhaps scope for alternative development, subject to any necessary planning consents and approvals. A rare opportunity, well worth closer inspection.
