Set on the largest plot on its street, this rare five-bedroom semi-detached home offers genuine family living and long-term potential. Well maintained by the same owners since 1963, the house retains period character alongside practical updates — a generous lounge, separate dining room with bay window, and a large kitchen/breakfast room with pantry make day-to-day family life easy.
The principal bedroom is a standout, flooded with light from three aspects. A charming fifth bedroom on the top floor enjoys far-reaching sea and city views and sits beside a large walk-in loft room that could be developed further subject to planning. Outdoors, the double-length plot provides a lush mature garden, pond, patio, gated driveway and an oversized garage — space that’s increasingly rare in Mannamead.
Be clear on the trade-offs: there is only one main bathroom (plus a separate WC), and some original elements will need attention — the bay window needs refurbishment and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect heating costs. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. Council tax is above average for the area.
For families seeking space, privacy and long-term value in a highly desirable neighbourhood, this property delivers a unique plot and flexible accommodation. Buyers who want modern energy performance or additional bathrooms should budget for upgrades, but those prepared to invest will find a characterful, roomy home with clear scope to improve and personalise.
