OFFERED with VACANT POSSESSION is this 3 Bedroom DETACHED RESIDENCE with great SCOPE for modernisation and POTENTIAL to extend subject to any relevant planning permissions. Located at the end of a PRIVATE no through LANE in the SOUGHT after area of ST. STEPHENS.

Situated in arguably one of Launceston's most sought after areas at the end of this private residential no through lane where its rare for properties to come to market. Millerson are pleased to offer this older style home which has been in the same family for many years and will allow the discerning buyer to definitely add their own personal touches. Externally, the property has been well maintained, but internally the accommodation needs updating and in brief offers an Entrance Porch, Entrance Hallway, triple aspect Sitting/Dining Room, Kitchen with Pantry and a spacious downstairs Wet Room providing disability facilities that could be easily revamped to create a luxury Bath/Shower Room. Upstairs are two good size Double Bedrooms and a Single Bedroom, with the front Bedroom enjoying partial views of the Castle, Town and Countryside. Modern double glazing throughout and mains gas central heating being served by a modern 'Worcester' combination boiler. We believe the size of the plot will offer space to extend to the side and the rear of the property and maybe options to incorporate the Garage and Outhouse into the main accommodation, which of course would be subject to any necessary planning consents. There is a driveway with ground to the side, which could be excavated to create more parking if required. In all, a MUST BE VIEWED property to fully appreciate what this home could offer and those wanting to have a feeling of countryside living, space and within close proximity of the town and its extensive range of amenities.
