This 1930s semi-detached home on Finedon Road combines period character with clear potential for a growing family. The property benefits from active planning consent for a large wrap‑around ground-floor extension, allowing you to significantly enlarge and remodel the living space while keeping the established neighbourhood setting and excellent local schools within walking distance.
Energy running costs are reduced by a combined solar thermal and photovoltaic array and a modern Vaillant boiler; an EPC rating of B reflects improved roof insulation after recent works. The house includes a generous rear garden with a south‑east aspect and an impressive detached workshop/shed with power and lighting — ideal for hobbies, home business use or further storage.
Internally the layout is practical but in need of updating. The living and dining rooms are bright with original bay windows, but finishes such as carpets and some kitchen fittings are dated. The property has double glazing (installed before 2002) and solid brick walls (no fitted cavity insulation assumed), so further insulation work could be required if you prioritise maximum thermal efficiency.
Important practical points are clear: there is only one bathroom and the house is approx. 921 sqft (house only). The active planning consent remains live because works were started, and the permission includes a dedicated dropped kerb and driveway remodel, easing off-street access. Overall this is a characterful family home with sensible energy credentials and scope to extend and modernise to your specification, but it will reward an owner willing to complete internal updates and some external repairs.
