This three-bedroom semi-detached home on The Drive in Collier Row offers practical family living with clear potential. The 22ft lounge diner provides a generous social space for everyday life and entertaining, while a garage and off-street parking add useful vehicle and storage capacity. Freehold tenure gives straightforward ownership and the property benefits from hot and cold air conditioning, double glazing and mains gas central heating.
Located 0.6 miles from Clockhouse Primary (Outstanding) and a short walk to Collier Row High Street, the house suits families seeking school access and local amenities. Lawns Park is only 0.3 miles away for outdoor time, and broadband and mobile signal are good — helpful for commuters and home workers.
There is scope to extend (subject to local planning permission), which will appeal to buyers wanting to add space or increase value. That said, the home requires some energy-efficiency improvements: solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the property dates from the 1950–66 era, so prospective buyers should budget for insulation or upgrading works. The plot is small and there is a single bathroom, which may limit planning choices and family convenience.
The surrounding area is classed as more deprived with a “hampered neighbourhoods” local classification and average crime levels; buyers should weigh these factors when considering long-term suitability. Overall, this is a practical, extendable family home in a convenient location for schools and local shops, suited to purchasers prepared to invest in modernisation and energy upgrades.
