Summary - 82, Martindale Crescent WN5 9DU
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable, low-maintenance three-bed ideal for first-time buyers and commuters.
Chain free three-bedroom semi-detached freehold
A compact, modern three-bedroom semi detached home offered chain free on a sought-after estate in WN5. Built in the mid-2000s, the house benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a private driveway — practical features that suit first-time buyers looking for move-in-ready basics and low ongoing bills (cheap council tax). Outside space is modest but well-kept, with small front and rear gardens that are easy to maintain.
Internally the layout is efficient: lounge, kitchen/diner and ground-floor WC with three bedrooms upstairs. The main bedroom is the largest and is listed as having an en-suite, though the property summary records a single bathroom overall — buyers should check the exact bathroom configuration at viewing. The property’s 732 sq ft footprint is small, so it suits buyers wanting manageable space rather than large family accommodation.
Location is a strength for commuters and families: excellent mobile and fast broadband, very low local crime, nearby schools rated Good, and access to local leisure facilities and transport links. Note the wider area indicators: classified as a very deprived neighbourhood and as constrained renters/communal retirement in local data. This may affect long-term capital growth compared with more affluent areas but can support rental demand for investors.
Practical considerations: the house appears well maintained and modern in finish, but prospective buyers should verify services, room measurements and EPC details in person. There’s potential to personalise or modestly extend (subject to planning) but any renovation costs should be factored into the budget. Overall, this is a straightforward, affordable three-bed freehold that will suit first-time buyers seeking low-maintenance, low-cost living close to local amenities.
