A well-proportioned three-bedroom period house in St Denys, offering classic Victorian character across two reception rooms and a modern first-floor bathroom. The sitting room’s bay window, original fireplaces and wood flooring create an appealing family layout while the fitted kitchen opens directly onto a lengthy, private rear garden.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and freehold tenure. The property sits within walking distance of local schools, shops and frequent bus routes, making it a sensible choice for growing families or buyers seeking good transport links.
Notable issues are a high flood risk for the area and higher local crime levels; the front garden needs maintenance and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so some thermal upgrade work may be required. Buyers should factor these considerations into budgeting and insurance decisions, but for those willing to invest, the house presents strong period charm and scope to improve energy efficiency and presentation.
