Possibly a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity to own this charming detached house which occupies a plot of approx. 678 sq yards/568 sqm on the exclusive Hornes Lane at Staincross. Commissioned in 1955 as a wedding gift from parents to son and built by local Barnsley builder Horace Dand, 'Shanklin' has been within the same family ever since and as such, this is the first time it has been offered for sale to the open market. Due to it's individuality, every room is that little bit larger than expected with the hallway being especially welcoming and the downstairs cloakroom/wc being a surprisingly modern fixture, considering that it was built some 60 years ago. Having huge potential to develop, modernise and extend to one's own specification, it is really worth viewing. EPC Rating D
