This extended 1930s detached home has been modernised and offers flexible family living across two floors. The ground floor centres on a long kitchen/diner with French doors to a sunny, south-facing garden and an adjoining family room — practical for everyday life and entertaining. A driveway provides ample off‑street parking for several cars.
Five bedrooms and an en‑suite to the principal bedroom suit a growing family; two reception rooms and a utility room add useful circulation and storage. The property was extended in 2011 and comes chain‑free, with a powered garden log cabin ideal for a home office or studio.
Buyers should note some material points: the house sits on solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (assumed), so improving thermal performance may be needed. There is a disused WWII air‑raid shelter at the rear that is not currently accessible. Local crime levels are above average for the area.
Overall, this is a characterful, newly renovated family home in an established neighbourhood close to schools and transport links. It will suit families seeking flexible living and outside space, and buyers willing to invest in further energy improvements or garden features.
