A well-proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached home set on a generous rear plot with clear river views from the front. The layout suits family life: a front lounge, kitchen/diner with room for a table, ground-floor WC and three first-floor bedrooms. The rear garden is sizeable, has a patio and a newly built insulated cabin with lighting, power and an electric radiator — useful as a home office or playroom.
Practical strengths include off-street parking for two cars, double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The plot offers scope to extend at the rear (subject to planning consent), which could create a larger open-plan kitchen/dining area and add value for growing families.
Important cautions: the property sits in a high flood-risk area, so flood insurance and resilience measures will be essential. The walls are original solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for potential insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades. The home has one family bathroom only and the overall internal area is modest (approximately 764 sq ft), so space is limited compared with larger modern houses.
No.7 holds a right of way across the side gate; purchasers should allow for this continued access. Services and appliances have not been tested, so a full survey and service checks are recommended before commitment. For families seeking riverside character, expansion potential and outdoor space, this home offers a practical, affordable base with clear upgrade opportunities.
