Three bedrooms with extended layout and extra reception room
Wrap-around garden and decent corner plot for outdoor living
Rear off-street parking providing practical access
Freehold, mid-20th-century build with mains gas central heating
Double glazing present; install date unknown (check)
Cavity walls likely without added insulation (assumed)
Single shower room only; may be limiting for larger households
High local crime and area deprivation; mixed school Ofsted ratings
This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house sits on a corner plot with a generous wrap-around garden and rear off-street parking — practical outside space for families and weekend projects. The ground floor offers a bright living room and a larger kitchen/dining area created by the extension, plus an additional reception room currently used as a playroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single family shower room.
The property is freehold, built in the mid 20th century and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the home suitable for remote working and modern family life. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
There are a number of practical considerations: the area shows higher crime levels and forms part of a deprived neighbourhood with mixed local services; nearby state schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes. The house appears to have cavity walls without added insulation (assumed) and the double glazing install date is unknown — both are likely improvement opportunities to raise comfort and energy efficiency. The single shower room may be limiting for larger families.
For buyers willing to modernise, the home offers clear value: solid mid-century bones, good-sized plot, parking and a flexible extended layout. It will particularly suit families or first-time buyers seeking outdoor space and scope to add value through targeted refurbishment.
