This well-proportioned three-bedroom Edwardian terrace combines period character with a contemporary open-plan rear extension. High ceilings, bay windows, stripped floorboards and original fireplaces give strong kerb appeal and comfortable family living across about 1,004 sq ft.
The ground floor centres on a generous sitting room to the front and a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room to the rear — an ideal social hub for entertaining and everyday family life. A modern bathroom serves three bedrooms on the first floor; the principal bedroom includes built-in storage. Owned solar panels and mains gas central heating help reduce running costs.
Outside, the property benefits from a low-maintenance rear garden and a detached double garage with rear access — useful for secure parking, storage or a home studio. Note the small front garden and comparatively modest rear plot typical of inner-suburban terraces.
Practical points to consider: the house was built c.1900–1929 and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, glazing install date is unknown, and the rear service road is maintained jointly with neighbours. The garden requires tidying and there is only one family bathroom. Overall this freehold home offers solid potential for cosmetic updating or modest extension subject to planning, particularly attractive to families seeking convenient access to local schools and green space.
