A comfortable three-bedroom semi-detached home on Preston Old Road offering practical family living and clear potential. Ground floor layout includes two reception rooms — one with a log burner and double doors into a well-lit conservatory — plus a contemporary-fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, a three-piece bathroom and a separate WC, useful for busy households.
Externally the property benefits from off-street parking, a single garage and a decent rear garden with mature planting — ideal for children or weekend entertaining. The home is freehold with council tax band C and an EPC rating of D; broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting home working and streaming.
The house dates from the early 20th century and retains period proportions, but also reveals areas for improvement: the glazing is older double glazing (pre-2002) and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs. Overall the property suits families seeking a roomy, well-located home with scope to modernise and add thermal upgrades to improve comfort and efficiency.
Local amenities include good primary schools within easy reach, supermarkets, sports and leisure facilities, and regular bus links. Positioned in an affluent, low-flood-risk area with average local crime levels, this is a practical buy for owner-occupiers or landlords targeting stable family lets.
