Modernised family home with garden, garage and no onward chain.
Backs directly onto Longton Playing Fields with private gated access
Set directly behind Longton Playing Fields, this detached three-bedroom home offers practical family living with immediate outdoor access and recent upgrades. The ground floor layout includes a flexible second reception room that can serve as a fourth bedroom, home office or playroom, while three well-proportioned bedrooms sit upstairs. Private gated access to the fields is a standout for children, dog-walks and active families.
Recent improvements give the house a low-maintenance feel: a modern kitchen and refurbished bathroom, new double glazing and composite doors, replaced fascias, gutters and dry verge caps, plus a new garage roof with an electric remote door. These updates reduce immediate repair needs and make the property move-in ready.
Practical considerations: the home has one bathroom, average overall floor area and a modest plot for a detached house, so families needing multiple bathrooms or larger living space should note this. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, which may affect heavy home-working or streaming without alternative solutions.
Sold freehold and with no onward chain, the house is straightforward to purchase. Its semi-rural suburban setting, good local schools and low crime make it especially suitable for families or downsizers seeking open views, outdoor space and a sensible, recently modernised home.
