Positioned in a quiet and mature residential setting, this is a property brimming with potential, combining character with an exceptional address. From the moment you arrive, No.56 Summerstown Drive has an inviting presence. A private driveway to the front offers parking for two cars and leads to a welcoming entrance hallway. Inside, the accommodation is generous and well-balanced, perfectly suited to modern family life. To the front of the house is a large, west-facing sitting room with an open fireplace, ideal for cosy evenings and filled with afternoon light. To the rear lies an impressive extended living and dining room, complete with integrated gas fire and patio doors that open to the garden, creating a wonderful space for relaxing and entertaining. A spacious kitchen and dining room, fully fitted and practical, sits alongside a handy utility room, ensuring day-to-day convenience. Also on the ground floor is a well-proportioned double bedroom and a guest WC, providing valuable flexibility for family living or visiting guests. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three further bedrooms. Two are generous doubles, bright and welcoming, while the third is a comfortable single, ideal as a bedroom, study, or nursery. A well-sized family bathroom completes the first floor. In summary, this is a well-presented four-bedroom home with all the fundamentals in place - space, light, a mature setting, and a location that is hard to beat. With just a little TLC, it has every chance to become a forever home for the next generation.
