This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Burnopfield offers a straightforward first-step purchase with no upper chain and freehold tenure. Practical recent upgrades — a rubberised roof fitted in 2024 and a new combi boiler installed July 2025 — reduce immediate maintenance outlay and make the property largely ready to heat and weather.
Inside, the layout is traditional and functional: hallway with storage, ground-floor WC, lounge and kitchen/diner, plus three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The house benefits from full uPVC double glazing and an enclosed rear garden that is larger than typical for this type, providing space for children, pets or a vegetable plot.
The home sits in a commuter-friendly village with good mobile coverage and basic local amenities, and very low council tax (band A) helps running costs. Virtual 360° and walk-through tours are available for remote viewing.
Buyers should note the property needs modernisation to bring interiors up to contemporary standards — cosmetic updating, kitchen and bathroom refreshes likely required. The EPC is D (65) so energy efficiency is average, and parking is on-street rather than private. The immediate area faces wider socio-economic challenges, which may affect long-term resale values for some buyers.
