Affordable move-in option near good schools and fast broadband.
Chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached freehold
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Ashthorpe Road offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase for first-time buyers seeking an affordable step onto the property ladder. At about 904 sq ft, the layout includes a ground-floor WC, living room opening to a conservatory, fitted kitchen, and three first-floor bedrooms — the master with an en-suite — providing practical space for a couple or small family.
Outside, the property benefits from off-street parking and an enclosed rear garden. The garden and patio are mainly laid to lawn but currently overgrown and will need basic tidy-up or landscaping. There is an option to buy furniture, which could help new owners move in more easily.
Built around the turn of the century, the home has double glazing installed before 2002 and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The construction details note a timber-frame build (assumed) and the house is freehold. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote work or study.
The location is practical: local shops, bus routes, a doctors’ surgery and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within walking distance. The wider area is classed as having higher deprivation, and crime is average; buyers should weigh local socio-economic factors alongside the low asking price and cheap council tax. Overall this is a sensible, affordable home with modest maintenance needed and potential to personalise.
