Light, well-proportioned and set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this detached four-bedroom home suits growing families seeking outdoor space and practicality. The ground floor offers two reception rooms, a breakfast kitchen and a convenient downstairs shower room created from part of the garage. Upstairs are four double bedrooms, including a main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite.
The rear garden is a standout feature: generous, private and landscaped with mature planting and a patio for outdoor dining. Parking is straightforward with a paved driveway and a partially converted garage providing useful storage rather than full garage space. Energy efficiency is reasonable with an Energy Rating C and mains gas central heating.
Practical considerations include older double glazing installed before 2002 and the garage conversion which reduces secure parking. The property dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s, so prospective buyers should expect some parts of the home to reflect that era and may want to update finishes or glazing over time. Council Tax Band D and freehold tenure provide straightforward ongoing costs.
Set in a quiet small-town fringe location with low crime, good broadband and nearby primary and secondary schools, this home offers a private family environment with scope to personalise. It will appeal to families who value garden space, multiple reception rooms and an established residential neighbourhood.
