Tucked at the end of a short private road, this chalet-style detached house offers four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous reception space across two levels. The layout is spacious and practical for family living, with a garage, private driveway for multiple cars and a large plot that offers scope for extension (subject to planning).
The property is offered with no onward chain, making it well suited to buyers who want a quicker move. Much of the accommodation is neutrally presented but dated in places, so the house will reward cosmetic modernisation—particularly to the kitchen and bathrooms—to unlock its full value. Double glazing has been fitted post-2002 and heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators.
Buyers should note material considerations: the EPC is D and the council tax sits in Band F, so running costs may be higher than average. The wider area records high crime and higher deprivation indicators, which may concern some purchasers. There is nevertheless convenient access to regular bus routes, supermarkets (including Sainsbury’s Calcot) and several well-rated local schools.
This home will suit families seeking space and a private position, or buyers looking for a renovation project with clear potential to add value. Viewings will reveal a property with solid mid-20th-century construction, comfortable room proportions and straightforward potential to modernise and reconfigure where desired.
