This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Red Lane offers practical, ready-to-move-in family accommodation across two floors. The layout includes a porch and hallway, a bright lounge, and a former garage converted into a flexible second living room or home office — useful for family life or remote working. The open-plan dining kitchen and separate utility room create everyday convenience for cooking and washing tasks.
Key recent updates include double glazing throughout, a re-roof within the last seven years and a new resin driveway providing off-street parking for two to three vehicles. The rear garden has a patio and lawn, giving a secure outdoor space for children to play or for low-maintenance gardening. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area.
Buyers should note clear local challenges: the immediate area records high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale and insurance costs. The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and external cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation — further energy-efficiency improvements could be needed. There is a single three-piece bathroom serving three bedrooms.
Overall, this freehold property suits families seeking a practical, flexible home with useful modern upgrades and off-street parking. It offers scope to personalise further energy and cosmetic improvements while benefiting from nearby schools and transport links.
