This extended mid-terrace on Leftley Estate offers flexible family living across three levels. Chain-free and freehold, it provides four bedrooms and three bathrooms including a large loft bedroom with en-suite — practical for a growing household or guest accommodation. A recent boiler reduces immediate heating concerns.
Ground floor living includes two reception rooms and a lengthy kitchen opening to a rear garden; windows and bay fronts bring natural light to principal rooms. The property is in a residential street with good access to Upney Station, bus routes, local schools and amenities, and benefits from fast broadband and strong mobile signal.
The house is broadly sound but requires cosmetic updating internally and some external tidying. Walls are solid brick with no confirmed insulation, so buyers should budget for potential insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. Council tax is above average, and the plot and front garden are small compared with modern family homes.
Overall this is a well-located family home with scope to personalise and add value. It suits buyers wanting immediate space and easy transport links, plus investors or families prepared to carry out moderate updating to improve comfort and energy performance.
