Selling agent Bedfords said: “The property has been a much-loved family home for many years, and whilst in good order, there are areas that would require some modernisation and improvement.”

Accommodation is arranged over three floors and stretches to around 1,900 sq ft in total.

The front door opens to an entrance hall with doors either side to a sitting room and dining room, both featuring inglenook fireplaces and windows to two aspects.
