This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Nine Lands offers practical family living with notable energy-saving extras and recent roof investment. The property benefits from owned Solar PV panels, an EPC rating of C, and a new roof fitted in 2024 — all reducing near-term maintenance and running costs. There is no onward chain, making for a quicker move if you need one.
Internally the layout is straightforward and adaptable: two reception rooms on the ground floor plus a kitchen, and three bedrooms with a single family bathroom upstairs. Rooms are well proportioned for the home’s footprint, but the overall internal size is small (approximately 338 sq ft) so expect compact living and limited storage. The home was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and has double glazing installed before 2002; cavity walls are assumed without added insulation, which may be worth upgrading for long-term efficiency gains.
Outside, the house sits on a modest plot with a driveway and single garage providing useful parking and storage. The garden offers space for basic landscaping or children's play but is not large. The area is residential and affluent with very low crime, good mobile signal and fast broadband potential; several primary and secondary schools rated Good to Outstanding are nearby, and local buses serve the area.
Buyers should note this is an ex-mining region; solicitors will need to check mining searches and any related ground issues. The property is freehold and chain free, making it attractive to buyers wanting an executable purchase, but it does present a clear refurbishment opportunity — particularly insulation and interior modernisation — to fully realise its value.
