Description
An excellent and rare chance to acquire a detached four bed house, situated in a desirable part of the popular town of Newmarket.
The house is in need of full updating and refurbishment and therefore offers a wonderful opportunity for owner-occupiers and investors to add value.

The internal accommodation comprises:

Outside; The property benefits from one driveway parking space which leads to an attached single garage of brick construction under a flat roof. There is a modest garden to the side of the accommodation which is mainly laid to lawn and surrounded by timber fences.
The property is very dated throughout and in poor general condition and therefore requires full refurbishment, but offers buyers the chance to create a wonderful family home in a desirable town centre location.
