This substantial five-bedroom semi-detached period house offers generous living space, high ceilings and three reception rooms across three floors — ideal for families wanting room to grow. Original character features such as a period fireplace and bay window combine with large rooms and a walk-in larder to provide comfortable daily living while retaining scope for modernisation.
The property sits on a very large plot with a mature, landscaped garden, driveway and single garage. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working. Local schools rated Good and nearby amenities make this practical for family life; the house is chain free and sold freehold.
The home requires renovation and updating, and currently has just one bathroom for five bedrooms — a key consideration for larger families. Pre-planning approval has been granted for three separate dwellings; the owners intend to pursue full planning permission and will separate the garden and land from the current title. That creates clear development or investment potential, but any purchaser should note that full planning is not yet secured and plots will be split.
For a family seeking spacious period accommodation with a large garden, or an investor/self-builder looking at a project with planning momentum, this house offers a rare combination of size, setting and potential. Buyers should budget for renovation works and allow time for any planning process to conclude.
