This cottage-style semi-detached home blends period character with an unusually private, generous rear garden — a standout for the plot size. The layout offers a spacious lounge with exposed beams and a log burner, a separate sitting room with French doors onto the garden, and three bedrooms arranged over two levels. A block-paved driveway and detached garage provide convenient off-street parking.
The house is compact internally (approximately 776 sq ft) but practical for families seeking outdoor space. Construction dates indicate an early 20th-century build with solid brick walls and double glazing fitted after 2002. Heating is mixed (warm-air system and electric heaters noted, with a mains gas boiler and radiators also recorded), so buyers should confirm the working arrangement and running costs.
There is clear potential to update and improve energy efficiency: solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the property would benefit from targeted insulation, modern heating consolidation, and cosmetic refurbishment to maximise comfort and value. The private rear garden, paved patio and mature planting make this a strong asset for family living or for someone wanting outside space in a built-up area.
Location provides easy access to local shops, health services, schools (several rated Good nearby) and commuter routes (A5, A38 and M6 Toll). Note the local area indicators: above-average crime and higher local deprivation; prospective buyers should view the neighbourhood in person to assess suitability and safety for their household.
