Standing on a secluded plot of just over 1.4 acres on the Southern outskirts of the Market Town of Driffield, this substantial and highly individual detached chalet house offers spacious and versatile accommodation that would now benefit from some updating. The enviable location adjoins Driffield Golf Course and is within walking distance of the Town. Summerlands will suit anyone who is accustomed to not having nearby neighbours but wants to be closer to the convenience of amenities. Although it is in a livable condition, an incoming purchaser may wish to put their own stamp on the decor and update some of the fittings. Some general maintenance work is also required.
Location
Summerlands is located on the southern side of Driffield and is accessed of the A164. The private access drive is opposite the Driffield Showground. Driffield offers an outstanding array of amenities, including shops, restaurants, public houses, quality sports facilities dedicated to Rugby, Golf, Football, Bowls, Cricket and many others, as well as a very highly regarded Secondary School. It also provides excellent road and public transport connections to Hull, Beverley, Bridlington and Scarborough.
