High-spec family living near parkland and strong transport links.
Approx 2,100 sq ft of living space plus oversized double garage
This spacious four-bedroom detached home on Juniper Avenue offers generous living space across approximately 2,100 sq ft, designed for modern family life. The open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with bi-fold/ sliding doors gives easy indoor–outdoor flow to a private, landscaped garden. Two principal bedrooms include fitted dressing areas and en-suites, while a separate snug, utility and integral oversized double garage add useful flexibility.
Specification highlights include a high-quality Pronorm kitchen with quartz worktops, fully integrated appliances, EV charge readiness, smart heating controls and double glazing. The house is presented with contemporary finishes, LED lighting in wet rooms, an intruder alarm and energy-efficient Band B rating — features that reduce ongoing running costs and suit a tech-aware household.
Practical points to note: the plot is described as small and the area records higher-than-average crime levels, so prospective buyers should consider security and external privacy arrangements. Council tax is noted as expensive. Although marketed as new build, construction dates are recorded as 2003–2006, so buyers should confirm exact build and warranty details.
Located in the Westpark Garden Village development, the property benefits from nearby parkland, local shops, M&S Foodhall and good schooling including an Outstanding-rated secondary. Transport links are strong with nearby A1(M)/A68 access and the East Coast mainline for commuting. Overall, the house suits families who prioritise contemporary, spacious living with high-spec fittings, but who are prepared to manage plot size limitations and local security considerations.
