Do you believe in love at first sight? If so, then make a date right now to meet a house in Farlington that needs a loving touch.

There’s an open house event on Saturday at the property in Prinsted Crescent, which is being sold with no onward chain. That means if it ignites the spark in your heart it could potentially be yours without the need for a long engagement while your permanent contract is arranged!

“It’s a house that could benefit from some modernisation although some buyers will happily live with it as it is and see it as an ongoing project,” explains Colin Shairp, of Town and Country Southern estate agents.

“One of the principal attractions is the corner plot which has plenty of space for extending the house, subject to consents of course. Neighbouring properties built on similar curves in the road clearly demonstrate what can be achieved and this house has even more space to play with than they did.

“As it stands, there is a sitting / dining room that’s 25 ft long together with a kitchen with a serving hatch to the dining area. At the rear is a conservatory looking onto the south-facing rear garden which could remain untouched by any extension plans in order to keep the secure play space it provides.

“Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two with built-in storage, and a wet room with a shower area equipped with a seat for easy use.

“At the front, the driveway extends beside the house to the garage, which is connected to the conservatory via a workshop that has a w.c. beside it. Behind a tall curved wall next to the garage is a planting area.

“With its position in the catchment of popular schools, easy access to major shops and commuter routes, and so much potential as a family home, it’s a property someone will just want to love but as it’s entirely liveable right now there’s no need to rush the relationship.”

Guide price is £270,000 (EPC Band E). For more information, contact Town and Country Southern on 023 93 277 288 or email sales@townandcountrysouthern.co.uk<
