A spacious five-bedroom semi-detached home on a wraparound corner plot, offering family-sized accommodation and flexible living. The property features a double-storey extension, a first-floor lounge with conservatory access and a garage with ample off-street parking — useful for multiple cars or storage.
Internally the layout suits families: four double bedrooms plus a single bedroom, a separate dining room and a lounge that opens to a conservatory. The kitchen adjoins the dining room and could be removed to create a larger open-plan kitchen/diner (STPP). There is one full shower room and a ground-floor cloakroom, so buyers should note this single full bathroom serves five bedrooms.
Practical points: the house is double-glazed and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators. The plot is generous for the area with a raised deck, lawn and potential to expand driveway parking. The property was built in the late 1960s–1970s and cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so buyers may wish to consider thermal improvements.
Location notes: shops, supermarkets and several schools are a short walk away, making day-to-day life convenient. The wider area scores high on deprivation and recorded crime is above average, so buyers should factor local context into their decision. Services and appliances have not been tested; a survey is recommended before purchase.
