Smaller fifth bedroom best suited as office, nursery, or single room
This substantial five-bedroom semi-detached Victorian home blends period character with practical family living. Thoughtful rear extensions and a large ground-floor footprint create flexible reception space — ideal for daily life and entertaining — while original detailing such as high ceilings, deep skirtings and sash-style bay windows retain the home’s historic charm.
The kitchen sits at the heart of the house with direct access to a relaxed sitting room and the rear garden. A generous utility/ancillary wing (with two utility rooms, storage and a ground-floor WC) offers everyday convenience and potential to support a home business or be reconfigured to suit a family’s changing needs. The level rear lawn, private front garden and an outbuilding add outside storage and play space.
Upstairs are five bedrooms, including a large bay-fronted principal room and four further well-proportioned rooms — one of which is notably smaller and best suited as a nursery, single bedroom or study. Practical facts to note: the property is freehold, comes with included floor coverings and integrated appliances, and has a Home Report valuation around £440,000.
Important considerations are presented candidly. The Energy Performance Certificate is rated D and the property sits in Council Tax Band F (expensive). The wider local area is recorded with high deprivation levels, which may influence local services and resale dynamics. Overall this period home will suit a family wanting character, flexible living and outdoor space, but buyers should factor in running costs and potential energy upgrades.
