This larger-than-average 1930s semi offers flexible living across three floors, with a bright rear reception and vaulted study that suit busy family life. The generous low-maintenance rear garden and paved driveway provide outdoor space and off-street parking — practical for school runs and weekend activities. The property is offered chain-free and sits within catchment for several well-rated primary and secondary schools.
Internally the layout includes a bay-front lounge, dining kitchen, useful downstairs WC, three first-floor bedrooms and a sizable occasional attic room that can serve as a playroom, home office or hobby space. The shower room is modern and the house benefits from mains gas boiler heating and double glazing (installation date unknown).
Notable practical points are that the home is leasehold (around 710 years remaining) and the cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (as built) — upgrading insulation would improve energy performance. Crime levels are above average in the immediate area, and there is a single shower room which may mean queuing at busy times for larger households. Overall this property suits growing families seeking extra space and attic potential, and buyers should factor modest retrofit work into running-cost plans.
