An attractive 1930s semi on a substantial 350 sqm (approx. 3,750 sq ft) plot, this three-bedroom family home offers immediate scope to extend and personalise. The house has two large reception rooms, a generous kitchen and an over-80ft rear garden — rare for the area — plus a private driveway and gated access to a garage for 2–3 cars. Internal space is around 95 sqm (1,025 sq ft).
The property requires modernisation throughout: cosmetic updating, likely insulation improvements (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated) and general refurbishment to bring heating, finishes and services up to contemporary standards. EPC rating D indicates some energy improvements would be beneficial. There is one family bathroom plus an additional ground-floor WC.
For families, the location is well served by several primary and secondary schools, local shops, bus links and a nearby station. Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signals. The freehold tenure and affordable council tax add to the long-term value if you plan to renovate or extend.
Vendors and buyers should note the property’s renovation requirement and solid-wall construction when budgeting. With space to extend (subject to planning) and a large private garden, the house suits buyers seeking a project with genuine growth potential rather than a move-in-ready finish.
