This spacious three-bedroom semi-detached home in Glen Parva offers a generous layout across two floors and substantial scope for improvement. The property is sold freehold and chain free, making it suitable for buyers keen to start works quickly. At around 906 sq ft, rooms are well-proportioned and the house retains period character from its 1930s construction.
A major practical asset is the large outbuilding incorporating a garage and workshop, plus a decent rear garden—useful for storage, hobbies or potential redevelopment subject to consents. The property has modern comforts such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband and mobile signal, which support contemporary living while renovation works are carried out.
The house requires modernisation throughout: expect updates to kitchen, bathrooms and general decoration, and plan for typical mid‑century maintenance. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels and an overall local profile of social renting young families, which may influence resale or rental prospects. Council tax is very low, and there is no flood risk.
Local amenities and schools are within easy reach, including several Ofsted-rated good and outstanding schools, shops, buses and a post office. The combination of space, outbuilding and no onward chain will appeal to families wanting to personalise their home or investors seeking a project in a well-connected city suburb.
