This contemporary six-bedroom town house is arranged over three floors and offers flexible family living in the desirable Napsbury Park development. The rear of the house opens into a generous open-plan living area with two sets of double doors to a south-facing garden, while a separate first-floor reception spans the full width with Juliet balconies and a feature fireplace. The kitchen is contemporary and well-equipped with integrated appliances, breakfast bar and space for dining; a utility room and ground-floor WC add everyday practicality.
The property sits on a decent plot with off-street parking for two cars and an integral garage currently used for storage (potential for conversion subject to consents). Built in the mid-2000s, the home benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and a well-landscaped south-facing garden with timber garden building. Local amenities, good bus links and highly regarded schools (including Outstanding and Good rated options nearby) make this a strong family location.
Practical considerations are clear: the house provides six bedrooms but only two bathrooms (one en-suite and one family shower room), and the garage conversion would require planning and building regulation approval if pursued. There is a below-average service charge of £886 and council tax is described as quite expensive. Broadband is fast, mobile signal average and the area is very affluent with average crime levels — good for families seeking space and school access but note the running costs and conversion requirements before proceeding.
