Properties of this stature, in such an established location only very rarely come to the open market. "Sycamore" was built thirty years ago by the current owners and is a four bedroom detached family home set in formal gardens and positioned off Oldfield Avenue opposite the care home. It is fair to point out that most buyers would like to update the property to their own standards and specifications. This is a rare opportunity, and the family home has the potential to be something even more special.The accommodation briefly comprises: reception hallway, lounge with square bay window, living room, snug, dining room, fully fitted kitchen, utility room, boot room/boiler room and cloakroom/WC, large first floor landing, master bedroom with en suite shower room, three additional double bedrooms and family bathroom. Outside there is a sweeping driveway to a stone built double garage and excellent established gardens, mainly laid to lawn. The property benefits from PVC double-glazed windows, gas central heating (boiler approximately 3 years old) and in addition there is a back boiler that can also provide hot water when the fire is in use. This family home has so much to admire, and wonderful potential, so viewing is highly recommended. In the first instance there is a walk-through viewing video available to watch, and then a personal viewing appointment can be arranged through our Darwen office.
