This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Blyth offers generous, naturally bright rooms and practical outdoor space for family living. The ground-floor WC and open-plan flow between living and dining areas make day-to-day life easy, while the outbuilding provides an immediate home office or hobby space. The large gated driveway and substantial garage deliver rare off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
The property is chain free and situated near well-rated local schools, parks and transport links, appealing to growing families and buy-to-let investors. Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the home benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a fully enclosed rear garden with patio and lawn.
Buyers should be aware of material issues: the lease has only about 12 years remaining, which may lead mortgage lenders to refuse lending; this significantly affects mortgageability and resale prospects. There is a medium flood risk for the location and local crime levels are reported as high, both factors to consider for insurance and security planning.
Overall, this is a practical, well-proportioned family home with immediate usable spaces and parking, best suited to buyers able to proceed in cash or those prepared to resolve the short lease and take sensible precautions around flood and security risks.
