Spacious three-bedroom house with basement potential near good schools.
Larger-than-average 1,399 sq ft semi-detached family home
Three well-proportioned bedrooms with bay-fronted living room
Large dining kitchen with direct access to south-facing decked garden
Basement with two large rooms — good conversion potential
UPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating (Baxi boiler)
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated — insulation work may be required
Single family bathroom only; may need more bathrooms for larger families
Small plot and low-maintenance front garden; rear garden modest
This spacious three-bedroom semi-detached home in Cockerton offers generous living space across lower-ground, ground and first floors, totalling about 1,399 sq ft. The bay-fronted lounge and large dining kitchen create comfortable family living, while a south-facing split-level garden with deck provides a pleasant outdoor spot for children and summer entertaining.
A major asset is the substantial lower-ground basement (two large rooms) that presents clear potential for conversion to a home office, playroom or extra reception space subject to permissions. The house is warm and practical with UPVC double glazing and gas central heating via a Baxi boiler, and it sits in an affluent, family-friendly area close to primary and secondary schools and local shops.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property has a single family bathroom, a small plot size, and the original solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so upgrading wall insulation and other energy improvements could be needed. The basement will require investment to convert for full habitable use, and services (heating, plumbing, electrics) have not been independently tested.
At the listed price this home suits families seeking larger internal rooms with scope to personalise, and investors or buyers who value basement conversion potential. Early inspection will best reveal the accommodation flow and the possibilities for modernising to increase value.
