This five-bedroom semi-detached house in Marshalswick offers practical family living with scope to personalise. The dual-aspect living/dining room and a light-filled kitchen with breakfast bar suit day-to-day family life and informal entertaining. A private, not-overlooked rear garden and sizeable garage with off-street parking add usable outdoor space and storage.
The layout includes a ground-floor WC, two upstairs bathrooms (one a separate shower room) and five bedrooms—flexible for families who need home working, hobbies or guest space. The plot is described as large for the area, and there is clear potential to extend (subject to planning) if you need more space or want to increase value.
Important auction and cost notes: the sale is by Modern Auction with an undisclosed reserve price and buyer fees including a non-refundable reservation fee. Buyers should check exact auction costs and the Buyer Information Pack before bidding. The property is sold chain free which can speed a purchase, but the auction timetable requires all parties to complete within 56 days.
Practical points to check: the house dates from the mid‑century era and external walls are cavity as built with no confirmed insulation, so energy improvements may be needed. Council tax is listed as expensive. Overall this is a solid family home in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent local schools and good transport links, best suited to buyers willing to modernise or extend.
