This 1930s semi-detached home on Chestnut Avenue offers a compact, well-presented family layout and private front and rear gardens recognised with a Wildlife Trust award. The property sits within walking distance of the R,D & E and local shops, with easy transport links and residents’ parking for convenience. Double glazing and a modern kitchen give ready-to-live-in appeal, while mains gas central heating and a boiler in a hallway cupboard provide straightforward servicing.
At about 562 sq ft the house is small but efficient: lounge, kitchen, three bedrooms and one bathroom across two floors. The rear garden is lawned with a pond, shed and fruit trees — a pleasant outdoor space for children or a small vegetable plot. The property is freehold with council tax band B, making running costs relatively low.
Buyers should note the compact floor area and single bathroom, which may limit space for larger households. The cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so there is potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce bills with insulation work. The local area has higher deprivation indicators and average crime levels; consider neighbourhood suitability and travel to schools and amenities when viewing.
This home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking an affordable, characterful period house with garden potential and scope for modest improvements. Its size and single bathroom mean it is best for small families, couples, or someone prepared to update or adapt the layout.
