This spacious four double-bedroom semi-detached home dates from the 19th century and offers flexible accommodation across three floors, including a large principal bedroom suite in the converted attic. The property sits on a prominent High Street corner in Mitcheldean and benefits from a substantial enclosed rear garden with a useful outbuilding that has power and water connected — ideal for storage, hobbies or a home workshop. The layout suits a growing family wanting good local school access and easy town-centre living.
The house retains period character such as tall sash windows, high ceilings and an original fireplace in the living room, combined with practical updates including a modern kitchen/diner and utility room. Heating is via a mains-gas boiler and radiators. The plot offers decent outdoor space for entertaining, lawn, planted beds and a pond, while main services (water, drainage, electricity, gas) are connected.
Important considerations: the EPC is rated E and the stone walls are likely uninsulated, so energy costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Part of the property includes a small flying freehold over the neighbouring property — buyers should obtain mortgage and legal advice. The front sits directly on the pavement, so front outside space is minimal and the prominent High Street location brings typical town-centre noise and passing activity.
This is a characterful, versatile family home with scope for further improvement or energy upgrades. It will appeal to buyers seeking village-centre convenience, good local schools and a private garden, while those prioritising top-tier energy efficiency or a larger front garden should note the property’s period construction and location constraints.
