Summary

A superb modern semi-detached house, located on the edge of this much sought-after village yet within easy distance of amenities, and offered for sale by online auction with no onward chain. This three-bedroomed house is ideally suited for first-time buyers, downsizers, buy-to-let or for those who wish to put their own mark on a property. Whilst presently maintained in general good order, the house is presented as a 'blank canvas', wanting only a personal touch to transform it into a wonderful home.
