Set on a quiet cul-de-sac close to Park Gate Primary School, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace offers straightforward family living with good local amenities. The ground floor features a large open-plan sitting/dining room and a fitted kitchen; upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The rear garden is private with a sizable decking area and low-maintenance artificial lawn, ideal for children or easy upkeep.
The house is conventionally laid out and deceptively spacious for its footprint, making it suitable for a young family or as a rental investment. Construction dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and some modernisation would both improve comfort and add value — there is scope for modest internal reconfiguration or a rear extension, subject to planning permission.
Practical points to note: glazing is double but installed before 2002, the property is of system-built construction and assumed to lack cavity insulation, and external areas would benefit from minor repairs and landscaping to boost kerb appeal. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile coverage are strong in the area.
This home sits in a very low-crime, affluent area with excellent local shopping, schools rated Good to Outstanding nearby, and easy access to Swanwick station and the M27. For buyers seeking a manageable family home with clear potential to upgrade, this house offers a sensible purchase at the asking price.
