Detached house for sale in Whitland Avenue, Heaton BL1

Offered to the market for the first time in many years and with no onward chain is this Freehold, four double bedroom and three reception room detached home. The accommodation on offer within this particular design is not readily apparent from the front. The garage is set to the side of the main property which results in well-balanced accommodation between the ground and first floor. The plot size will allow an onward owner to extend the accommodation and still retain an appropriately sized rear garden.

It is also worthy of note that the large second reception room which is accessed from both the kitchen and main lounge would be well suited to help create open plan living without the need to extend. This reconfiguration could be completed in a number of ways.

Plot position is always an important aspect to consider, and this particular dwelling occupies a plot with well orientated rear garden and faces a green open space, rather than being immediately opposite a property.

The property has been very well cared for during its lengthy ownership and includes full UPVC double glazing and an efficient boiler installed 3 years ago. The roof to the rear elevation has the benefit of both solar thermal and solar pv panels. An asking price has been set to afford the purchasers an opportunity to modernise items such as the kitchen and sanitary ware.

The sellers inform us that the property is Freehold. Council Tax Band F - £2,945.06
