Chain free three-bedroom semi with large rear kitchen extension
Large rear garden; good scope for family outdoor use or landscaping
Integral garage plus paved driveway for multiple vehicles

Set on a large plot in the sought-after Crofton & Darrick Wood catchment, this extended three-bedroom semi offers practical family living with immediate move-in potential. The large ground-floor kitchen extension creates a bright, open hub that flows to a good-sized rear garden — ideal for children and entertaining. Two receptions plus a through lounge/dining area give flexible living and dining arrangements.
The home includes a ground-floor shower room and a first-floor family bathroom, a useful layout for busy mornings. An integral garage and paved driveway provide secure parking for multiple vehicles. Double glazing is already installed and the property benefits from mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Notable positives sit alongside some practical considerations: the double glazing dates from before 2002, council tax is above average and the property sits in a medium flood-risk area. Built in the mid-20th century, the house will suit buyers looking for a well-proportioned family home with scope to update and personalise rather than a fully modernised turnkey property.
Offered chain free, this home will particularly suit families seeking access to top-rated local schools and green space close by, or buyers wanting a roomy semi in an affluent, well-connected neighbourhood with strong broadband and mobile coverage.
