Large period family home with garden, garage and no onward chain.
Five bedrooms and five reception rooms, versatile family layout
A striking Victorian detached home on The Avenue, offering generous family space across five bedrooms and five reception rooms. Period features such as bay windows, high ceilings, original fireplaces and picture rails give charm and character throughout, while the sociable kitchen/breakfast room with Rayburn suits everyday family life.
The house sits on a large plot with an enclosed rear garden, three patio areas, greenhouse and raised beds. A driveway and single garage provide secure parking and storage. Practical positives include mains gas central heating, two bathrooms plus separate WCs, excellent mobile signal and no flood risk.
This property is chain free and has been loved by the current owners for over 25 years, but it is a Victorian solid-brick construction with no presumed wall insulation. Council Tax is band F (expensive) and the local area records higher crime levels — both important factors for budgeting and insurance. Broadband speeds are average; some buyers may want to upgrade utilities or carry out energy-efficiency improvements.
Ideal for a growing family who value period character, generous rooms and outdoor space, the house also suits someone seeking sympathetic refurbishment potential rather than a fully modernised move-in ready home. A survey is recommended to check services, insulation and heating efficiency before purchase.
