This well-presented three-bedroom detached house on Gavin Close offers practical family living in Thorpe Astley, close to parks, schools and local amenities. The ground floor flows from a reception room to a functional kitchen and a bright conservatory that opens onto a low-maintenance garden — a useful extra living area for children or informal dining. A side garage and driveway give convenient off-street parking and storage.
Upstairs provides three bedrooms and a family bathroom; the principal bedroom is the largest and will suit a couple or parent and child arrangement. The property is freehold, built around the turn of the century, with double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. Council tax is described as affordable and the immediate area is low-crime with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Size is modest — total internal area around 722 sq ft — so buyers seeking very large rooms or extensive storage should note the footprint is compact. The single family bathroom and smaller third bedroom reflect the practical, economical layout rather than spacious accommodation. Buyers are advised that services and appliances have not been tested and to commission their own survey and service reports before purchase.
Overall, this detached house will suit families or first-time buyers seeking a modern, low-maintenance home in a well-served suburb with good schools and green space nearby. It offers straightforward potential to personalise and improve, particularly if you want to reconfigure or update finishes over time.
