South-facing rear garden approximately 235ft deep, not directly overlooked
Set on an unusually deep 235ft south-facing plot, this 1960s semi-detached home offers clear scope for a family to create a long-term residence or for an investor to add value. The through living/dining room, separate kitchen and three first-floor bedrooms provide a sensible, flexible layout ready for refurbishment. A loft conversion and rear/extensions appear feasible, subject to planning, increasing living space and resale potential.
The plot’s depth and privacy are standout features: the rear garden is not directly overlooked and the wide driveway (13ft+) plus substantial front garden provide generous off-street parking and access to a detached garage. The location is very practical — within comfortable walking distance of the hospital, primary schools and the town centre and mainline station, making daily life and commuting straightforward.
The property requires updating throughout; fixtures, fittings and decor will need replacement and a refurbishment budget should be factored into any purchase. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the single family bathroom may be restrictive for some buyers. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average, which prospective purchasers should consider alongside the property’s many positives.
Offered freehold and chain free, this house suits buyers seeking renovation potential in an affluent suburb. Families will value the proximity to good primary schools and outdoor space; investors will note the plot size and development upside. Practical utilities are in place (mains gas boiler and radiators) and the EPC is in the mid-range, meaning energy improvements could also add value.
