This tidy three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cottingham offers a straightforward, move-in ready option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The ground floor has a bright lounge and a modern kitchen/diner with French doors onto a private rear garden — a practical layout for everyday living and socialising. An en-suite to the principal bedroom adds convenience for busy households.
Outside there is off-street parking for two cars and an adjacent single garage, a real plus for suburban living. The plot is modest in size, so the garden is manageable rather than expansive — ideal for low-maintenance outdoor space but limiting for those needing large family gardens. The property extends to about 743 sq ft, with average room sizes and standard ceiling heights throughout.
Location is a genuine strength: walking distance to Castle Hill Hospital, within a strong local school catchment, and well connected to Hull and Beverley by road and public transport. Practical extras include freehold tenure, an EPC rating of B, mains services and gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. The house presents minimal immediate expenditure but does offer scope to personalise interiors over time.
Buyers should note the third bedroom is compact and best suited as a single bedroom, nursery or home-office. The overall plot and garden are small, which may be a limiting factor for growing families seeking larger external amenity. Otherwise this is a neat, well-located home that balances low upkeep with sensible space for a first home or rental purchase.
