This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Derwent Avenue offers straightforward, family-focused accommodation at an affordable price. The full-width kitchen/diner with patio doors opens onto a manageable rear garden, creating an easy flow for family life and outdoor play. Gas central heating and UPVC double glazing provide reliable warmth and lower maintenance.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: a generous entrance hall, a front-aspect lounge, three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and a recently refitted bathroom with a corner shower cubicle. Off-street parking and a garage/metal shed to the side add useful storage and vehicle space for a suburban home.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the neighbourhood records above-average crime and the wider area shows higher deprivation indices. Several nearby state schools are rated as “requires improvement,” which may matter to families. The house was built in the late 1960s–1970s, so while presented well, some buyers may wish to budget for updating or modernization over time.
Overall this property suits first-time buyers or growing families who prioritise practical space, good broadband and mobile connections, and easy access to local shops, retail parks and the bypass. It offers realistic value for those prepared to accept a modest neighbourhood and potential future maintenance or cosmetic work.
