Spacious three-bedroom semi-detached home on Collins Drive offering 958 sq ft of traditional family living. The house sits in a quiet, low-crime suburb with excellent mobile and fast broadband — practical for modern family life and home working. An open-plan living/dining area flows through to a conservatory that captures far-reaching views, and a driveway provides convenient off-street parking.
The property dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and would benefit from some updating: interiors are serviceable but will suit buyers who want to modernise finishes and fixtures. Walls are cavity construction with no known added insulation (assumed), so improving thermal performance could reduce heating costs and increase comfort. There is a single bathroom and standard ceiling heights throughout.
Practical details: tenure is leasehold with around 954 years remaining and a small ground rent of £25, EPC rating C, mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators, and very low local crime. The home is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools, making it a convenient choice for families seeking good local education options.
This house will suit a growing household looking for sensible space, off-street parking and scope to add value through updating and energy improvements. Buyers should budget for modernization and potential insulation upgrades, but will gain a comfortable, well-located family home with strong local amenities.
