Loen Crescent (pronounced "lowen") is an attractive, low density cul de sac comprising approximately 11 individual homes. Properties within the development are rarely offered for sale, making this an exceptional opportunity.

Believed to have been constructed around 1970, this particular property has remained in the same ownership for50 years. It already provides generous family accommodation with an excellent overall footprint, whilst also offering considerable potential for future enhancement. The integral double garage presents an opportunity for conversion, and the generous plot provides scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations.

The property has been meticulously maintained throughout its ownership. Whilst some elements may now be considered dated by modern standards, this has been reflected within the asking price, allowing an incoming purchaser the opportunity to update and personalise the accommodation to suit their own tastes.

One of the property's most appealing features is its delightful rear setting. The landscaped garden is predominantly level and enjoys a high degree of privacy, complemented by a lower patio seating area adjoining a natural flowing river with mature woodland beyond, creating an attractive backdrop throughout the year.

The seller informs us that the property is Leasehold for a term of 750 years from 12th May 1970 subject to the payment of a yearly Ground Rent of £20.

Council Tax is Band E - £2,923.94
