- Detached one-bedroom house, 562 sq ft
- Open-plan kitchen/lounge/dining with integrated appliances
- Secluded, low-maintenance garden, small plot
- Single attached garage plus driveway parking

- Dormer bedroom with sloped ceiling and reduced headroom
- Freehold tenure; low council tax and low local crime
- Limited living space; best suited to single/couple downsizers
A tidy, modern one-bedroom detached house that suits a single buyer or couple looking to downsize without compromising on comfort. The open-plan kitchen/lounge/dining room makes efficient use of the 562 sq ft, creating a bright, sociable ground floor with integrated appliances and wood flooring. A dormer bedroom with a slanted ceiling and Velux window adds character while keeping the footprint compact.
Practical benefits include a secluded, low-maintenance garden and an attached single garage with driveway parking — useful for storage, a car, or hobbies. Built between 2007–2011, the home has double glazing, a mains gas boiler with radiators, and assumed cavity wall insulation, helping to keep running costs modest; council tax is described as cheap. Broadband speeds are fast, and local crime levels are low, making the location comfortable and convenient.
Be clear on the limitations: this is a small, one-bedroom house on a small plot, so storage and entertaining space are constrained compared with larger family homes. The upper room has reduced headroom because of the sloped roof; buyers who need a full-height second bedroom or significant internal space should look elsewhere. Mobile signal is average, which may matter for heavy mobile-dependent users.
Overall, this property offers a straightforward, low-upkeep home in an affluent, comfortable neighbourhood — ideal for buyers seeking a compact, modern, freehold house with private outdoor space and garage parking.
