Set on a generous plot in sought-after Marlborough Road, this four-bedroom detached house offers a rare, chain-free opportunity for growing families. The property combines spacious living areas with a large rear garden, detached garage and wide driveway that together create excellent everyday practicality and future extension potential.
Ground floor rooms include a bay-fronted living room, dining room with garden access, family room, kitchen and a downstairs WC. Upstairs are four bedrooms — including a bay-fronted main bedroom with fitted wardrobe — and a single family bathroom. The overall layout is comfortable and adaptable for family life, home working or flexible living arrangements.
The house retains period character externally while many internal areas show dated 1980s/1990s décor and finishes. Genuine scope exists to modernise the kitchen, bathroom and living spaces to create a contemporary family home or increase value by extending (subject to consents). Note there is only one bathroom which may be limiting for larger families until upgraded.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, very low local crime, excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds, and proximity to highly regarded primary and secondary schools. Council tax banding is high, and some updating/maintenance will be required — but for buyers seeking space, a large garden and strong location, this property offers clear long-term potential.
