Set on a quiet street in Wendover, this Victorian three-bedroom semi offers generous family living across 1,143 sq ft. The ground floor layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/dining area with utility and pantry, and direct access to a southerly rear garden — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. High ceilings, sash windows and original fireplaces retain period character throughout.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for two cars, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is freehold, in a very affluent, low-crime area close to well-regarded primary and secondary schools and village amenities.
Buyers should note a few important, factual drawbacks: the house has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation, and double glazing was installed before 2002, so improving thermal efficiency may be required. The rear garden is pleasant but would benefit from landscaping to suit contemporary outdoor living. The layout and condition are well suited to a growing family but there is scope and cost to update windows, insulation and some fixtures.
Overall this home will suit a family seeking character and space in a village-fringe location who are prepared to carry out selective improvements to enhance energy efficiency and modern comfort.
