Characterful family home with large garden and walkable train link.
Extended three-bedroom semi-detached family home
This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house on Bradford Road offers comfortable family living within walking distance of the train station. The ground floor benefits from a rear garden room and a handy downstairs cloakroom, while upstairs provides two double bedrooms, a good third bedroom and a family bathroom. Original character survives in bay windows and fireplaces, giving the home period charm alongside practical upgrades like double glazing and gas central heating.
Outside, the paved frontage provides double-width off-street parking and gated side access leads to a generous, landscaped rear garden that backs onto allotments for an open, unobscured outlook. Garden storage includes multiple sheds and a greenhouse — useful for families who value private outdoor space and hobby gardening.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and an affluent local area with several well-rated schools nearby. The property is freehold with an affordable council tax band and occupies a decent plot for a suburban semi.
Buyers should note some material points: the property’s solid brick walls appear to have no added cavity insulation (typical of its 1900–1929 build), so improved insulation may be needed to boost energy efficiency. There is only one full bathroom (plus a downstairs cloakroom), and local recorded crime is above average — factors to consider for family buyers. Overall, the house suits families seeking character, outdoor space and commuter convenience, with scope to modernise thermal performance.
