This roomy three-bedroom semi-detached home on Shipley Road offers practical family living across generous rooms and a large garden. The through lounge and dining area is bright with dual bay windows; the oversized kitchen and separate utility/store add everyday convenience. Off-street parking and a driveway increase kerbside practicality for families.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a fully tiled modern bathroom with walk-in shower. The house benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband and mobile signal — useful for working from home or streaming. Nearby schools, shops, places of worship and regular bus routes make day-to-day life straightforward.
Considerations: the property sits in a generally deprived ward and was built as a solid-brick 1900–1929 home, so wall insulation is likely absent and some updating may be needed (living room carpet and décor are dated). There is one bathroom only; buyers seeking full modernisation or improved thermal performance should factor renovation costs in. Freehold tenure and the sizeable plot offer long-term scope for extension or improvement subject to planning.
