A substantial five-bedroom detached house in a quiet cul-de-sac, extended to provide bright, flexible family accommodation. The ground floor flows from a vaulted dining room and family room to a large sitting room and a recently refitted 23’ kitchen/breakfast area with French doors onto a paved entertaining terrace. The garden is sunny with a wisteria-wrapped pergola, raised beds, artificial lawn area and central pond — low-maintenance and sociable for outdoor living.
Upstairs offers five large bedrooms, a contemporary four-piece family bathroom and Jack-and-Jill en-suite facilities linking the principal bedrooms. Practical extras include an integral garage, driveway parking for up to three cars, double glazing and a gas boiler serving radiators. The property’s EPC C (77) indicates reasonable energy performance for its size.
Location is a strength: close to Swanwick station, nearby shopping at Locks Heath and Whiteley, and several well-rated primary schools including an Outstanding option. The area is affluent with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, supporting home working and family life.
Important considerations: the house is in a higher-crime area locally — buyers should satisfy themselves on security and insurance implications. For a five-bedroom house there are two bathrooms only; families wanting more ensuite facilities may need to adapt space. Overall this is a spacious, well-presented detached home that suits growing families seeking easy access to transport and amenities.
