Summary - 86 SUMMER LANE, LOWER GORNAL, LOWER GORNAL DY3 2HA
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Three-bedroom family home with garden and garage near village amenities.
Extended open-plan kitchen diner, bright sociable living space
This extended three-bedroom terraced house on Summer Lane offers practical family living within walking distance of Gornal village. The standout open-plan kitchen diner provides a bright, sociable heart to the home, complemented by a separate lounge and a useful utility room with guest WC. A mature, enclosed rear garden and off-street parking plus an L-shaped garage add outdoor space and storage rarely found on similar-sized terraces.
The property dates from before 1900 and retains period character such as a bay-windowed front room and fireplace. It benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing, though the glazing and some fittings are older (installed before 2002). The walls are solid brick with no known cavity insulation, so anyone prioritising energy efficiency should budget for insulation or upgrading works.
Accommodation is compact overall at about 678 sq ft and includes a single family bathroom. The house is freehold and council tax is very low, which helps monthly affordability. Local amenities, several good schools, public transport and strong broadband and mobile signal make the location practical for family life.
Buyers should note the local area scores high for deprivation and crime is average; this may concern some purchasers and may affect resale expectations. Structurally the home appears well maintained, but energy-efficiency improvements and cosmetic modernisation would add value. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the extended living space and the rear garden.
