Set on a huge plot in Park Crescent, this Edwardian seven-bedroom detached house combines substantial living space with clear redevelopment potential. The property extends to nearly 4,945 sq ft with five reception rooms, a sunroom, three first-floor bathrooms and a ground-floor cloakroom — ideal for multi-generational family use or conversion into multiple units.
The grounds are a standout asset: beautifully maintained front and rear gardens and a private driveway with space for several vehicles. The vendor has previously been granted outline planning permission for two new-build properties and for renovation of the former coach house, creating a realistic opportunity to increase value subject to planning confirmation and surveys.
Practical details are straightforward: freehold tenure, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing installed after 2002, and excellent mobile and fast broadband. The house is solid brick (likely uninsulated) and dates from 1900–1929, so modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements will be needed to bring running costs down.
Important considerations are candidly stated: the property sits in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate and relatively expensive council tax. Buyers should commission full technical and legal surveys, and treat the outline planning permission as previously granted but not a guarantee of fresh consents. This home suits buyers seeking a high‑potential period property with sizeable grounds and development upside.
