Set on the popular Planets Estate, this chain-free three-bedroom detached home is tailored to family life. The property offers a large open-plan lounge/diner that opens to the rear garden, a separate study ideal for homework or home working, and a re-fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. A single garage and tandem off-road parking for up to three cars add practical everyday convenience.
Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms with fitted storage in the principal bedroom and a modern double-width shower room. The rear garden is private, mainly lawned with a generous patio — well suited to children’s play or outdoor entertaining. Double glazing and a gas boiler with radiator heating provide immediate comfort.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s so buyers should expect an older construction; cavity walls have partial insulation (assumed) which could be improved for energy efficiency. There is one family bathroom (shower room) only, which may be a consideration for larger households. The property is described in good condition but services and appliances have not been independently tested, so surveys are recommended.
Overall this is a move-in-ready family home in a very desirable, low-crime area with strong local schools and fast broadband. It will suit buyers wanting space, parking and a private garden without immediate renovation, while offering scope to enhance insulation or personalise finishes over time.
