Set at the end of a quiet cul‑de‑sac in Knighton, this four‑bedroom detached home is tailored to family life. The ground floor offers an extended living room with bay window, separate dining space, study (previously used as a ground‑floor bedroom) and a conservatory that opens onto a large sunny rear garden. Practical additions include a utility room and downstairs WC.
Energy and parking are strong selling points: 16 solar panels, an electric vehicle charging point and a detached double garage with power and lighting. The main bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a tiled en‑suite; all four bedrooms have built‑in wardrobes. A new central heating system was fitted in September 2023, improving comfort and efficiency.
The plot gives scope for extensions or alterations (subject to planning permission), ideal for buyers seeking to adapt the layout over time. The property is freehold and sits in a low‑crime, affluent area with excellent broadband and mobile signals, close to well‑regarded schools and local amenities.
Buyers should note a few practical points: council tax is band F (expensive), the double glazing install date is unknown, and the house is typical of late‑1980s construction, so some cosmetic updates may be desired. Overall this is a comfortable, well‑equipped family home with clear potential to personalise.
