This well-presented Victorian semi-detached house offers spacious family living across two floors, with high ceilings and large bay windows that flood principal rooms with light. At about 1,593 sq ft the layout includes two reception rooms, a sizeable modernised kitchen with a wood-burning stove, four bedrooms plus a useful dressing room, a family bathroom and a ground-floor wet room — practical for busy households.
Outside, twin wrought-iron gates open onto a block-paved driveway providing secure off-street parking. The rear plot is arranged for low maintenance with a paved patio and synthetic lawn, ideal for family play or outdoor entertaining. The property is offered chain free and sits close to several well-regarded primary and secondary schools, local shops and transport links — convenient for school runs and everyday life.
Practical points to note: the home is leasehold with a very long residue term (999-year original term) and a nominal annual ground rent of £6. Construction is typical of its era with cavity walls assumed to lack added insulation, so buyers should factor potential insulation or energy-improvement work into plans. The exterior shows period character but may benefit from cosmetic refresh.
This house will suit families seeking generous rooms, character features and easy outdoor upkeep, and also appeals to buyers wanting a large, ready-to-live-in home that still offers scope to improve energy efficiency and external presentation. An internal inspection is recommended to appreciate room sizes and period detail.
