Set on a generous corner plot in popular Springhead, this four-bedroom semi-detached house is offered chain-free and ready for a family to personalise. The property includes a conservatory, spacious lounge and dining area, separate kitchen and a useful garage located on a separate plot. Windows are uPVC double glazing and gas central heating supplies radiators throughout. The long lease (952 years) gives security typical of freehold-equivalent tenure.
The home requires some modernization and cosmetic updating; an internal inspection will reveal dated finishes and a single ground-floor bathroom serving four bedrooms. At approximately 965 sq ft, the layout suits a growing family seeking good local schools and easy access to amenities rather than buyers wanting a turnkey, high-end finish. EPC C and council tax band C provide reasonable running costs.
Location is a key strength: quiet, set back from the road with lawn gardens to three sides, very low local crime rates, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Regular bus services, nearby shops and several Good-rated primary schools make the house especially practical for families. The property’s construction era (late 1960s–1970s) and filled cavity walls are typical of the area.
This is a straightforward, family-oriented purchase for buyers who want a roomy, well-located home with scope to upgrade and add value. The corner plot offers potential to improve outdoor space and extend (subject to planning), while the long lease removes common leasehold timing concerns.
