This detached four-bedroom family home sits on a corner plot in a sought-after Marehay street, offering a wrap-around garden and private driveway with detached garage. The ground floor flows from a porch and entrance hall into an open-plan living and dining area, a conservatory and a breakfast kitchen—ideal for everyday family life and casual entertaining. Outside, multiple secluded seating areas and solar-lit paths create a surprising amount of private outdoor space for a property of this size.
Upstairs are four good-sized bedrooms and a modern three-piece bathroom. Practical features include downstairs WC, loft access and built-in bedroom storage. The house is presented as well maintained with modern kitchen fittings, contemporary bathroom and a secure gated driveway, making it ready to occupy with scope to personalise.
Notable limitations are a single family bathroom and an overall modest internal footprint (around 1,106 sq ft), which may feel tight for larger families seeking more en-suite or additional shower rooms. The EPC is listed as awaiting, and buyers should allow for that survey and any recommended works. Council tax is described as affordable and local schools rated well, which will suit families prioritising schooling and community amenities.
In short, this property offers comfortable, practical family living in a popular suburban location with private outdoor space and off-street parking. It will appeal to buyers looking for a well-presented home that offers immediate use and potential to adapt rooms to changing needs.
