Set on a generous plot in a popular BS9 neighbourhood, this 1930s three-bedroom semi-detached family home combines period character with substantial living space and a sunny south-facing garden. The property is chain free and offers immediate practical benefits: a gated driveway with parking for several vehicles, an integral garage with rear access, and a flexible layout with two reception rooms plus an extended kitchen/diner.
The house retains many original features — bay windows, stained and leaded glass, fireplaces and high ceilings — which give strong character and kerb appeal. The living areas are well-proportioned and the rear reception opens through French doors onto the patio, making indoor-outdoor family life easy. At about 1,523 sq ft, there is room to adapt or extend (subject to planning) to suit growing needs.
Important practical points: the property has a single family bathroom plus a separate WC and a kitchen described as mid-20th century and dated, so updating will improve comfort and value. Construction is original solid brick (likely without modern cavity insulation), so buyers should budget for potential insulation and energy-efficiency improvements. Council Tax is above average (Band E) and local recorded crime is above average for the area.
For families the location is a strong draw — highly regarded state and independent schools, good local amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. This home suits buyers looking for a character family house with immediate parking and garden space, who are willing to carry out sympathetic modernisation to unlock further value.
