This newly renovated two-bedroom semi-detached home on Lilac Avenue combines period charm with contemporary living. The property features a bright bay-front sitting room, a modern kitchen and a generous open-plan extension with skylights that leads directly onto a long, predominantly south-facing lawn — excellent for families who value outdoor space or buyers wanting scope to extend (subject to planning).
Practicalities include off-street parking, a utility area, two shower rooms and gas central heating with a modern boiler. The internal footprint is average (approximately 849 sq ft) but the unusually long rear garden is a major value driver, offering privacy and potential for landscaping or extension.
Notable considerations: the house dates from the 1930s–1940s and has solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation), so further insulation or energy improvements may be desirable. The wider neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, mixed-use area with good transport links and proximity to university campuses, but local crime levels are above average — worth factoring into viewing and security plans.
Overall, the home will suit families or first-time buyers seeking a move-in-ready property with strong external amenity and scope to personalise. Council tax is described as low; broadband and mobile signal are good, making the property practical for modern homeworking and daily life.
