This spacious three-bedroom detached house on Thistlebarrow Road sits in a sought-after north Salisbury location well-placed for families. The property offers an extended ground floor footprint with a long sitting room, separate dining area and a substantial 7m kitchen, plus a useful studio/home office to the rear. It benefits from double glazing and a recently installed Worcester boiler for mains-gas central heating.
Outside, the plot delivers practical parking and storage: a driveway with a 9m covered parking area, an electric up-and-over door to a 6m garage, and a pedestrian gate into the rear garden. The garden includes a paved patio and lawn but shows signs of neglect and will need maintenance or re-landscaping to restore its potential. Vacant possession is offered, so the property is ready for immediate reoccupation or renovation.
The house is presented as a renovation project: it needs updating throughout and may suit buyers looking to modernise, reconfigure internal layouts, or add value. The large overall size (approx. 1,799 sq ft) and separate studio create flexible space for home-working, hobbies, or extension (subject to consents). Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, very low local crime, and proximity to good schools, Victoria Park, the city centre and railway station.
Drawbacks are straightforward: the property requires updating and possible alteration throughout, and council tax is above average. Buyers should budget for refurbishment works and garden maintenance. For a family seeking space in an affluent, well-connected suburb, this property offers strong long-term potential once modernised.
