This 1930s semi-detached home blends period character with practical family living across two floors. The bay-fronted lounge with a working log burner and an open-plan kitchen/diner give comfortable, sociable ground-floor living. Mature front and rear gardens feel private despite the small plot and include dual gated access for off-street parking.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a modern three-piece bathroom. The house is compact at around 665 sqft, so it suits a growing family, couple or first-time buyer wanting character rather than expansive living space. There is clear potential to extend into the loft (subject to planning permission) to add space and value.
Practical details: the property is freehold, EPC rated D and in council tax band C. It benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and strong commuter links to the M1 and local guided busway. Local amenities and several primary schools are nearby, while some secondary schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes.
Notable cautions: the home is small and has a single bathroom, so space is limited. The wider locality records higher crime levels—worth checking local statistics and security needs. The house will suit buyers prepared to accept a compact footprint and, potentially, carry out modest updating to maximise loft conversion potential.
