Set in a quiet cul-de-sac, this three-bedroom detached house offers comfortable family living with practical modern touches. A welcoming hallway leads to a spacious lounge and an open-plan kitchen/diner with integrated appliances — a clear social hub for everyday life and entertaining. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite, and a separate modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Neutral décor throughout makes the house move-in ready for buyers who want minimal immediate work.
Externally the property benefits from an enclosed rear garden arranged for outdoor dining and private family use, plus a small front garden behind a low brick wall. The home retains period character externally — bay windows and pitched roof — while having double glazing installed after 2002 and mains gas central heating for efficient everyday comfort. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working and student occupants in the area.
Notable practical points: the house dates from the early 20th century and has cavity walls presumed uninsulated, so energy-efficiency improvements (loft, wall insulation) could yield lower bills and uplift value. The plot is modestly sized and street parking is used outside. The neighbourhood has higher-than-average crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider alongside the property’s other strengths.
Overall this detached home suits families or professionals seeking a well-presented, characterful property near local schools, transport links and amenities — with straightforward scope to increase energy performance and personalise finishes over time.
