This substantial five-bedroom detached house on High Street, Eckington, sits on roughly a third of an acre and offers clear scope for someone wanting space and long-term value. The property’s stone frontage, mature garden and detached garage create an attractive outward appearance and substantial outdoor space for families, hobbies or potential extension (subject to planning).
Internally the layout provides versatile living: two reception rooms plus a kitchen/living area, utility and ground-floor WC give useful day-to-day flexibility. The five first-floor bedrooms are well-proportioned for a large family but the home now requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic and service upgrades will be needed to bring the interior up to contemporary standards.
Practical details to note: the description records a solid fuel boiler and also lists mains gas as the main fuel source; buyers should verify the heating system and service history. There is only one bathroom for five bedrooms, and the local area records above-average crime statistics, which may influence family buyers. Benefits include very large private grounds, ample off-street parking and good local amenities and transport links close by.
