Set on a large plot in LE2, this substantial 1930s double-fronted detached house offers generous family living across multiple reception rooms and a large kitchen-diner. The ground floor layout—with lounge, study, spacious family room, utility, downstairs shower room and integral garage—suits entertaining and day-to-day family use. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite, dressing area and balcony overlooking the rear garden.
The property is being sold freehold with no upper chain and offers immediate scope for improvement and modernisation. The house is structurally traditional solid-brick construction and comes with double glazing and gas central heating, but it requires refurbishment throughout; updating, redecoration and possible insulation work will be needed to bring it to contemporary standards. An EPC is awaited.
Outside, mature hedges frame a carriage driveway and provide privacy; the rear garden is large, mainly lawned with a patio and established shrubs and trees—good for children and gardening. Practical features include an integral garage, off-street parking and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. Council Tax Band F applies and should be factored into running costs.
This home will suit families wanting space and character who are happy to undertake a sympathetic renovation, or investors looking for a large detached property with clear value-add potential in a well-served urban area.
