Set on a generous corner plot in Chancellors Park, this four-bedroom detached home suits families seeking space, off-street parking and easy commuter access. The layout includes a large lounge, kitchen/dining room, sun room and a powered double garage — useful for parking, storage or a workshop. The master bedroom has an ensuite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. Multiple Mitsubishi air-conditioning units add comfort on warmer days.
Practical benefits include driveway parking for two to three cars, a wide rear garden with decking, a useful utility room and loft access (partially boarded). The corner position offers genuine scope to extend (subject to planning), making this a property with clear growth potential for growing families or those wanting to add value.
Be aware of a few material points: the house was built around 1976–1982 and has double glazing installed before 2002, with cavity walls only partially insulated. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators. Council tax is described as expensive, and local crime levels are very high — factors to consider for running costs and security improvements.
Location strengths include proximity to Old Town amenities, the mainline station, A1(M) and Lister Hospital, plus several well-rated local schools within walking distance. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting home working and family connectivity.
