Townshend, TR27

Description

A superb opportunity to acquire a well positioned building plot with consent for four semi detached houses - two open market three bedroom homes and two three bedroom shared ownership homes. Each proposed property has been thoughtfully designed to offer modern, spacious living. The ground floor will feature a living room, a kitchen/dining room and a cloakroom. On the first floor there will be three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, making these ideal homes for families, first-time buyers, or investors. The properties will benefit from attractive rural views to the rear. Externally, each home will have two allocated parking spaces and private rear gardens laid to lawn. This plot represents an excellent development prospect in a desirable setting and an early enquiry is highly recommended.
