This extended 1930s semi-detached home sits on a large plot on Parkgate Road, offering four bedrooms and two reception rooms across generous living space. Original character survives in bay windows and a chimney, while double glazing and mains gas heating provide practical comfort. A separate outbuilding gives flexible space for a home office or annexe, appealing to families needing extra room.
Practical positives include a driveway, off-street parking and a good selection of nearby primary and secondary schools, including well-rated independents and state schools. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband suit home working and streaming. The freehold tenure and substantial square footage create clear potential for layout improvements or extensions (subject to consent).
Buyers should be aware of material negatives: the property lies in a high flooding-risk area and the neighbourhood records above-average crime and marked local deprivation. There is only one family bathroom for four bedrooms, and the cavity walls appear uninsulated, so buyers should budget for insulation and possible energy-efficiency upgrades.
Overall this home will suit families seeking space and character who are prepared to manage flood risk and invest in improvements. It offers immediate liveability with scope to add value through refurbishment and better insulation.
