Flexible family home with converted garage, garden and tandem parking—scope to modernise..
Three well-proportioned bedrooms with flexible living space
Converted garage usable as office, gym, or extra bedroom
Gated tandem off-street parking for two vehicles
Decent enclosed rear garden, private and child-friendly
Single bathroom only; may need additional facilities
Built 1967–75; cavity walls assumed uninsulated (energy upgrade needed)
Located near schools, shops, good transport links, low crime
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Merlin Crescent offers practical family living with flexible space and off-street parking. The converted garage provides useful extra accommodation—ideal as a home office, playroom or occasional fourth bedroom—while a decent enclosed rear garden suits children and outdoor entertaining. The property is a straightforward, average-sized home with a modern open-plan kitchen/diner and gas central heating.
Location is a real strength: within walking distance of local schools, shops and everyday amenities, with good mobile and broadband connectivity and easy access to the M4 corridor for commuters. Tandem gated parking adds convenience on a street of similar 1960s homes.
Buyers should note this is an ageing suburban property (constructed 1967–75) and walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction. There is one bathroom only, and some updating or insulation work may be required to improve energy efficiency. The wider area is classified as very deprived, which may influence resale and rental demand despite the low local crime rate.
For families or value-seeking buyers, the house presents solid practical space and scope to add value through targeted refurbishment and insulation improvements. It is offered freehold with Council Tax band C, making it an accessible purchase for many buyers.
