Set on a generous plot in comfortable suburbia, this five-bedroom detached home offers flexible family living with off-street parking and a detached garage. The house dates from the 1980s and presents a modern kitchen, two bathrooms (including an en-suite) and double glazing; solar panels contribute to running-cost savings and produce an income stream.
Internally the footprint is modest for five bedrooms (approx. 1,209 sq ft) so rooms are practical rather than expansive. The layout suits families who need separate living, dining and a ground-floor office/bedroom, while the large rear garden is a clear asset for outdoor life and entertaining.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold, chain free, very low local crime and no flood risk. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal average — factor this in if you rely on high-speed home working or streaming. There are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may require scheduling at busy times or modest reconfiguration to add facilities.
Local amenities and schools are strong nearby, with several ‘Good’ rated primaries and secondaries, parks and sports facilities within easy reach. Overall this is a family-focused, low-maintenance suburban home that rewards modest modernisation and benefits from lower energy costs thanks to its solar panels.
