School Lane, Fenstanton

PROPERTY SUMMARY Harvey Robinson Estate Agents in St Ives are delighted to offer For Sale, with no forward chain, this rarely available renovation opportunity within the sought after village of Fenstanton. Originally constructed in 1846, this early Victorian home offers a wealth of character in a highly desirable location within the village, within walking distance of amenities and a stones throw from the primary school. The accommodation in brief comprises an entrance porch, an open plan living / dining room, a ground floor bathroom and a separate kitchen to the ground floor. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, each with fitted storage. The property requires improvement and updating throughout allowing any buyer to put their own stamp on this home. The essence of this property, however, lies in the outside space. Situated at the end of the terrace, this property benefits from a generous side and rear garden providing possibility for extension (STPP). There is also a single garage which can be found directly behind the garden en-bloc, whilst on road parking can be found to the front of the property. This home would make an excellent opportunity for any developer, landlord or buyer wishing to make their own stamp on their home. Interest is anticipated to be strong and viewings can be organised by contacting our St Ives office.
