This five-bedroom detached home in Oakley Vale offers flexible family living across two floors, with two ensuite bedrooms and a large living/dining space designed for everyday family life. The modern fitted kitchen and ground-floor WC add practical convenience, while French doors open the living area to a fully enclosed rear garden with decking — a useful outdoor entertaining space for children and family gatherings.
The property includes a converted garage now used as bedroom one with an ensuite, making it ideal for multigenerational living or guest accommodation; however this conversion means there is no internal garage space. The front driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles and a small front garden that is low-maintenance.
Buyers should note the overall plot and property footprint are modest for a five-bedroom house; the listing describes the overall size as small and the plot as small. Council tax is above average for the area and local crime levels are listed as above average — factors to consider for household budgets and security planning. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and the location is close to well-regarded primary and secondary schools, parks and local shops, which will suit families prioritising education and local amenities.
In short, this is a well-presented, practical family home in a popular neighbourhood offering flexible accommodation and outdoor space, but with a reduced plot size and converted garage that buyers should weigh against their storage and external space needs.
