Practical points to note: the house lies in a Coal Mining Reporting Area, so further searches are recommended before purchase. There is planning approval to redevelop the old club across the road into several houses — this may mean construction activity and changed outlook in the short to medium term. The home has one family bathroom and is average in size (approx. 895 sq ft), so buyers needing more space or an additional bathroom should consider whether adaptations are required.
Overall this Freehold, traditionally built semi-detached house from the 1980s offers a comfortable family layout, outdoor space and good local links. It will suit purchasers wanting a well-maintained house with potential to personalise, while being mindful of nearby development and the need for standard searches relating to historic mining.
