Opportunity for a confident buyer to modernise and add value near good schools.
Chain free three-bedroom semi-detached house
This three-bedroom semi-detached home sits on a decent plot in a peaceful town-fringe location, offered chain free and ready for modernisation. The layout is traditional with a large reception room, separate kitchen to the rear, downstairs WC and a single bathroom upstairs. Double glazing and gas central heating are in place; the property dates from the 1950s–60s with filled cavity walls.
The garden is lawned and private, bordered by mature trees, and there is a driveway plus a secure garage for parking and storage. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the house workable for home study or part-time remote work. Local schools include a nearby independent grammar and two highly regarded state secondaries.
Practical considerations: the house needs renovation throughout — cosmetic and likely some updating to kitchen, bathroom and finishes — so buyers should allow a refurbishment budget. There is only one bathroom and the rooms are average in size, which suits a small family or couple seeking a project rather than buyers wanting a turnkey home.
For a first-time buyer or investor willing to improve the property, this home offers scope to add value in a very low-crime, affluent area with no flood risk. Its traditional plan and decent plot give straightforward potential for reconfiguration or modern refit, subject to standard planning and building regulations.
