It also features a large sloped garden to the rear of the property where the best views into the distance become visible. On the ground floor, a spacious lounge is present facing the waterside, with the kitchen and a storage cupboard the only other additions.

Two double bedrooms are present on the first floor as well as a family bathroom. The flooring and wallpaper throughout the property has been lifted and stripped back to the barebones.

Another attractive feature that could remain is the fireplace in the lounge. The kitchen is fitted with wooden panelling and flooring to give it a sauna-effect, with the rear garden also being an attractive prospect with a bit of work.
