A substantial late-Victorian semi-detached house offering spacious, flexible accommodation across multiple floors and large outside space. The property sits behind an original carriageway entrance and benefits from off-road parking, a west-facing garden, and a substantial roof terrace — useful for outdoor living and entertaining.
The layout includes a formal sitting room, separate dining room, kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the garden, utility and ground-floor shower room, plus a principal bedroom with dressing room and en-suite. An unconverted basement provides useful storage or scope to create additional accommodation. At 2,415 sq ft the house presents strong potential for a family layout or a sympathetic refurbishment to restore period features such as high ceilings, sash windows and fireplaces.
Important — the property requires a full programme of renovation. Roof deterioration has caused damage in several rooms and the house needs comprehensive repair and modernisation; solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and glazing is only partial. There is no survey on file, and buyers should commission structural and roofing reports before committing. Council tax is above average and the local area records higher crime levels, which may concern some purchasers. Sold freehold and with no onward chain, it offers clear title for renovation projects or investment-led refurbishment.
