Overall Description

This substantial semi-detached house has been extended to the rear, and has plenty of scope for further expansion either with a loft conversion (as others have in the area), by extending to the side over the large garage, or by knocking through into the garage to add a downstairs cloakroom or annexe (all subject to the usual consents). The property has double-glazed windows and gas central-heating, but would benefit from significant internal modernisation. However, it does offer buyers the opportunity to create a large modern family home to suit their individual needs and taste in a really good location for schools, transport links and other amenities. The house has a large back garden with a south westerly aspect as well as a good-sized garage to the side and private driveway with off-street parking. We have an Open Day booked for this property from 10am to 12 noon on Saturday 10th December so please call to book a viewing (if you can't make that date we will, of course, find a convenient time to show you around). The property is being sold with no chain and probate has been granted. To watch our Virtual Video Guided Tour please search for "74 Heath Drive, Ware" on You Tube.
