Large plot with pool and extension potential in a sought-after school area.
Rare 240 ft rear garden, huge outdoor potential
Set on an exceptionally deep 240 ft plot, this 1930s semi-detached house gives a rare chance to create a substantial family garden and extended footprint (STPP). The ground floor’s open-plan diner and reception flow to a conservatory and broad rear plot where a disused swimming pool sits at the far end; the pool can be reinstated or landscaped to suit modern family living. A long drive and garage provide useful off-street parking.
Internally the home retains mid-century features — bay window, textured walls and a faux fireplace — but needs updating throughout. There are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom, so buyers should expect to reconfigure or extend for more contemporary family layouts. Double glazing has been fitted since 2002 and gas central heating is installed, but the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and further improvements will be required to modernise energy performance.
This property is offered chain-free but for cash buyers only; that condition and the need for refurbishment make it suitable for an experienced family buyer or developer looking for a high‑value plot in a very affluent area. Nearby schools include an Outstanding secondary and two grammar schools rated Good, adding genuine appeal for schooling families.
Practical positives include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, low local crime and easy access to local shops and amenities. The home’s size and plot present clear scope for a substantial remodelling or extension to create a long-term family residence.
