This three-bedroom detached house on a quiet cul-de-sac offers straightforward family living and easy commuting. Set on a small freehold plot, the home includes off-street parking, an enclosed rear garden and a conservatory that extends living space. It's a practical choice for buyers seeking a ready-to-use, modern-suburban layout close to transport links.
Inside there are three good-sized bedrooms, a master ensuite, family bathroom, downstairs WC, fitted kitchen with utility area and a converted garage providing an extra ground-floor room. Built in the early 1990s, the property has mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators and double glazing already installed (pre-2002).
The house will suit families wanting proximity to good local schools and Northfield train station, both a short walk away. It also presents light refurbishment potential: some rooms show older 1980s-style finishes, patterned carpets and textured ceilings, and there are signs of damp in one area that should be inspected and remedied.
Be mindful of the wider context: the local area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels, and the plot is modest in size. These factors affect resale and should be weighed against the property's transport links, layout and freehold tenure. A viewing is recommended to assess the layout, condition and scope for improvement in person.
