26 Buttermere Drive, Onchan
Description
A spacious and versatile detached home offering excellent potential for a purchaser looking to modernise and create a property to their own taste. Requiring refurbishment throughout, the house benefits from well-proportioned accommodation together with particularly impressive garage and storage facilities. The main living accommodation is arranged across the first floor, with a generous living room opening into a separate dining area, kitchen and three bedrooms. The primary bedroom is particularly spacious, while two bathrooms provide plenty of scope for reconfiguration and modernisation. The ground floor is currently predominantly given over to garaging, storage and additional rooms, providing excellent flexibility for anyone requiring workshop, hobby or vehicle space. The integral double garage is complemented by a separate detached single garage, making the property particularly appealing to a car or motorcycle enthusiast, tradesperson or purchaser simply looking for substantial secure storage. While the property would benefit from a comprehensive programme of refurbishment, the existing proportions and layout provide a great starting point, with plenty of opportunity to improve and personalise the accommodation.
