The ground floor offers a comfortable lounge with feature fireplace and log-burning stove, a separate dining room that opens to a lean-to conservatory, and a practical kitchen and utility area. A double-width block-paved driveway provides convenient off-street parking for two cars. The property is freehold and being sold chain-free.
There is clear potential to extend to the rear subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, making this a good option for buyers wanting to increase living space or add value. The home benefits from gas central heating and double glazing but does show scope for modernisation throughout — sensible updating would improve layout and finishes to suit contemporary family life.

Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for home working. Practical details: council tax band C, average internal footprint of about 1,084 sq ft and a large, enclosed south-facing rear garden with mature planting and two sheds.
Buyers should note material local factors: the wider area records higher crime levels and indicators of deprivation, which may be relevant to some purchasers. Any rear extension will require formal planning approval. Overall this is a well-located, characterful family home on a sizeable plot, offering immediate liveability and clear potential for improvement or enlargement.
