The house presents an open-plan kitchen-diner, a full-width sun room and a well-kept rear garden, giving useful versatile living space for everyday family life and entertaining.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for two cars, a large rear garage with lane access and freehold tenure. Nearby tram and train links (Arena and Elmers End), plus several Ofsted-rated primary and secondary schools, make the location especially convenient for commuting families and school runs.
Buyers should note the home is modest in size (approximately 736 sq ft) and constructed in the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation. Double glazing appears to pre-date 2002 and the property has a single family bathroom upstairs — both factors to consider for future running costs and upgrades.
