CHAIN FREE. Peacefully tucked away in a small cul-de-sac enviably located on the ever-popular south side of Shirley is this delightful semi-detached home. Renowned locally for their quality of build, this style of home is known as the Gower C, and it offers spacious and bright accommodation. The family home offers two generous reception rooms, both with bay windows; the lounge is located at the rear, overlooking the truly delightful, secluded rear garden, which enjoys a southerly aspect. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and the modern bathroom facilities. A garage can be found to the side of the house, and there is off parking to the front. This property has been a much-loved family home for many years; in fact, it has only had two owners in its nearly hundred-year history. It has obviously been well maintained, featuring a well-cared-for interior, and benefits from solar panels, a new boiler in 2022, parquet flooring in the hallway, quarry tiled flooring in the kitchen, and has the luxury of underfloor heating in the shower room. An internal viewing comes highly recommended.
Location

The Gower C
This style of house is known locally as the Gower C. Held in regard due to the quality of build, this is a fine example of the 1930s architecture and construction. Particularly impressive aspects of this design are the size of the reception rooms and the fact that all three bedrooms are genuine doubles.
Extension Potential
Similar homes in the immediate area have been extended to the side, rear, and into the loft space to provide additional bedrooms, bathrooms, and further living spaces. This scope certainly exists here too, and obviously, any improvement of this nature will require the relevant local authority consents.
