Set on a generous corner plot overlooking Lightwater Country Park lake, this extended four-bedroom semi-detached home delivers well-planned family living and scope to add value. The current layout includes a comfortable living room, spacious open-plan kitchen/dining, a versatile family room (or fifth bedroom/study) and an integral garage with conversion potential (STPP). Large windows and glazed doors bring in light and frame park views for everyday enjoyment.
The property is presented in good order with gas central heating, double glazing and practical wood-laminate floors. Outside there’s a private rear garden with wide patio for entertaining, a driveway with space for three to four cars and convenient side access. Local amenities are within walking distance: Lightwater village shops, cafes and two well-regarded primary schools are nearby, while the M3 (J3) is roughly half a mile away for commuter routes.
There are sensible improvement and cost considerations to weigh. The house dates from the mid-20th century and the cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (assumed), so further insulation work could be beneficial. There is also clear planning potential to add a second floor above the existing extension, subject to planning permission (STPP). Council tax sits in Band E, which is above average for the area.
Overall this home suits a growing family seeking bright, adaptable accommodation with strong outdoor amenity and scope to increase living space. Viewing will best convey the lakeside outlook, corner-plot privacy and the practical layout that supports everyday family life.
