Set on a generous plot in comfortable suburbia, this four-bedroom detached house offers practical family living with modern touches. Two large reception rooms and a well-fitted breakfast kitchen give flexible living and dining space, while a Victorian-style conservatory provides a light, year-round sitting area overlooking the rear garden. The property is presented in move-in ready condition.
Bedrooms are practical for a growing family: fitted wardrobes in all rooms and a master with en-suite reduce immediate storage needs. Outside, a double garage and an expansive driveway provide secure parking and room for multiple vehicles — useful for busy households or visiting family. The garden has a paved patio and lawn for children’s play and outdoor entertaining.
Location strengths include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and there is no flood risk. Notable local negatives are that several nearby state schools currently have Ofsted ratings of “Requires improvement,” and council tax is above average — both relevant for family budgeting and long-term schooling plans. The house was constructed in the early 1990s and has double glazing, though specific installation dates and mechanical systems have not been independently tested.
This home suits buyers seeking straightforward, comfortable family accommodation with scope to personalise. It combines roomy living areas, off-street parking and a private garden with a peaceful suburban setting — practical benefits for everyday family life.
