Two bathrooms—ground-floor bathroom and first-floor shower room
Generous rear garden; currently overgrown, needs landscaping
Off-street parking on concrete driveway; two timber sheds

Freehold with low council tax band B
Area note: above-average crime and local deprivation indicators
Set just a short walk from Alford town centre, this traditional detached house offers flexible 2/3-bedroom accommodation with two reception rooms and two bathrooms. The layout suits a growing family or buyers wanting a home-office/study option; rooms are a practical size and the property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing. Council tax sits at a lower band and the tenure is freehold, which helps running costs and ownership simplicity.
The rear garden is generous and private but currently overgrown and in need of landscaping — a good opportunity for someone wanting to add value or create personalised outside space. Interior fittings are functional: the kitchen has space for freestanding appliances and the boiler is wall-mounted, but buyers should note that services, electrics and heating have not been independently tested and a survey is recommended.
Practical positives include off-street parking on the concrete driveway, two useful timber sheds and proximity to local amenities and a highly ranked secondary school. Material considerations: the area records above-average crime and is in a more deprived local catchment, double glazing predates 2002, and some external and garden maintenance will be required. Early viewing is advised for those seeking a well-located property with scope to modernise and improve its curb appeal.
