This 1930s semi-detached home in Sandal blends period character with contemporary fittings across spacious family accommodation. High ceilings, decorative cornice, cast-iron fireplaces and bay windows provide authentic charm, while the large open-plan farmhouse kitchen, utility/pantry and versatile ground-floor office/bedroom suit modern family life. The elevated, private plot includes a driveway, detached garage and well-stocked gardens with flagged patios for alfresco dining and play.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, making the house well-suited for commuting and home working. The property sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with several highly rated primary and secondary schools close by, so it will appeal to families prioritising local schooling and community amenities.
Notable considerations: the home has an EPC rating of D and original solid brick walls (insulation date unknown), so buyers should expect possible energy-efficiency improvements and associated costs. There is a single main bathroom and one downstairs WC, and some attic / loft storage only accessible via hatch—additional storage or loft conversion would require investigation and consents. Council tax is moderate.
Overall this freehold property offers generous room sizes (approximately 1,389 sq ft), period detail, and a large plot with garage—suited to growing families seeking character, scope to improve energy performance, and convenient commuter links.
