Austin & Roe have pleasure in offering for sale "Avon House" this beautifully presented traditional three-bedroom detached property, originally built circa 1925 and tastefully extended in 2000.

This property has a warm welcoming feel and has been truly loved by its previous three owners.
There is a detached annex to the rear of the property, split into three sections, a studio/gym, a storage facility and the third section has been used as a utility room, this could be easily converted into a granny flat or teenager pad as there are electric and water services connected. There are windows along one side of the building and a secure lockable hardwood door. Planning has also been granted in the past to extend the original building further as there is ample space to the front and side of the property.
