PROPERTY DESCRIPTION Nestled in the heart of Marchamley Village, Oaklands is a light and spacious Four Bedroom Bungalow with the added benefit of a large Bedroom to the first floor and large attic space.

Set on a large Garden plot that wraps around the property, Oaklands requires updating throughout. To the front is the large Porch with a tiled floor that opens to the Hallway which has stairs up to the first floor.

To your left is the generous, L-shaped Open Plan Dining Lounge with a stone open fireplace and a stone arch leading from the Lounge through to the Dining Room. The Dining Room has French doors out to the Garden and a further door opens to the Kitchen which has a good range of modern units, with an integrated oven, microwave, hob with extractor fan over, and space for a tall fridge freezer. Next to the Kitchen is the Utility with space for your washing machine and the oil-fired boiler, and a door out to the Garden.

Returning to the Hall and there's the Bathroom with bath and shower, Bedroom One with an En Suite Shower Room, a Double Bedroom and a Single Bedroom. To the first floor is a large, L-Shaped Bedroom with ample eaves storage spaces - one previously had a WC, another houses a sink that's been drained down, and a third houses the hot water tank. There's also an extensive loft storage space and loft store room - so there is enormous potential for you to explore the potential of creating further living space in the attic.

Externally, the Drive leads up to the bungalow and then leads round the property through mature Gardens to the Garage at the rear. There's a timber log/bin store and plenty of standing area for cars or caravans.

This really is a special property with so much potential - so we highly recommend a viewing! Please contact our team in the Market Drayton office to arrange a viewing. A copy of the Survey is available to cash buyers who book a viewing.

MODERN METHOD OF AUCTION This property is for sale by the Modern Method of Auction which is not to be confused with traditional auction. The Modern Method of Auction is a flexible buyer friendly method of purchase. We do not require the purchaser to exchange contracts immediately, however from the date the Draft Contract is received by the buyers solicitor, the buyer is given 56 days in which to complete the transaction, with the aim being to exchange contracts within the first 28 days. Allowing the additional time to exchange on the property means interested parties can proceed with traditional residential finance.

Upon close of a successful auction or if the vendor accepts an offer during the auction, the buyer will be required to make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% to a minimum of £6,600 including VAT, which secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Fees paid to the Auctioneer may be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property and be included in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.

The buyer will be required to sign an Acknowledgement of Reservation form to confirm acceptance of terms prior to solicitors being instructed. Copies of the Reservation form and all terms and conditions can be found in the Buyer Information Pack which can be downloaded for free from the auction section of our website or requested from our Auction Department. Please note this property is subject to an undisclosed reserve price which is generally no more than 10% in excess of the Starting Bid, both the Starting Bid and reserve price can be subject to change.
