Main bedroom with en-suite plus family bathroom upstairs
In-and-out driveway, side garage/store and ample parking

This substantial four-bedroom detached house on Gloucester Road sits on a large plot and offers generous family living across two floors. The ground floor has two reception rooms, a sizeable open-plan kitchen/diner that leads to a conservatory, a useful utility and a ground-floor shower room — practical for busy households and multi-generation living.
The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite and there are three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The property includes an in-and-out driveway, side garage/store and a large rear garden, providing ample parking, storage and outdoor space for children and pets.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and has double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls assumed without added insulation. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds in the area are slow and council tax is high; these are realistic running-cost considerations.
Overall, this is a roomy, well-located family home in an affluent, low-crime area with strong local schools and good transport links. It will suit buyers seeking space and outdoor amenity who are prepared to invest modestly in energy improvements and modernisation to maximise comfort and long-term value.
