This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Woodley offers a practical family layout with clear scope to modernise and add value. The ground floor provides an entrance hall, open plan living/dining room and kitchen, while three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom sit above. The property totals about 970 sq ft and sits on a small plot with a rear lawn and two garden sheds.
Outside, the property benefits from off-street parking for two to three vehicles at the front and a rear garden with patio — a useful outdoor space for children or container planting. Local amenities are within a few minutes’ walk at Woodley precinct, where shops, supermarkets, pubs and health services are available. Good and outstanding-rated schools are close by, and the A329/M4 link makes commuting straightforward.
The house dates from the post-war period (c.1950–66) and retains period character but requires updating: finishes are dated and the living space needs modernisation to meet contemporary standards. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though install date is unknown. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
Practical buyers and investors will see potential here: the property’s size, parking and proximity to local amenities make it a functional family home now, and an attractive refurbishment opportunity to increase comfort and value. Note the single bathroom and the small plot size when comparing to larger family gardens.
