Affordable family home with garage and garden — scope to modernise and add value.
Three bedrooms with bay-fronted lounge and conservatory
This three-bedroom, semi-detached home on Park Vale Drive offers practical family living across two storeys with a garage and rear patio. Rooms are generously proportioned for the size (approximately 784 sq ft) and the layout includes a large bay-fronted lounge, fitted kitchen, conservatory and a single family bathroom. The property is freehold, council tax band A (very cheap) and benefits from fast broadband and average mobile signal — useful for home working and family connectivity.
The house is serviceable but dated: interior photos and descriptions show 1960s–70s style fittings, exposed beams, and older décor that will suit a buyer prepared to modernise. The cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation (as built), so updating heating and insulation could be a sensible early investment alongside cosmetic refurbishment. Double glazing is present though the install date is unknown.
Location is convenient for local amenities, schools and transport links, but the wider area records above-average crime and very high deprivation; buyers should factor neighbourhood context into their decision. Practical positives include a garage, front lawn, rear patio and a tidy room configuration for a small/medium family. A full survey is recommended to verify services and structural condition before purchase.
Overall this is an affordable, freehold family home with genuine scope to add value through modernization. It will suit first-time buyers or families looking for a low council-tax base and straightforward refurbishment project in a well-connected suburb.
