This Victorian sandstone villa offers roomy, characterful accommodation across two floors plus attic space, suited to families or downsizers seeking traditional features and a generous garden. High ceilings, bay and dormer windows and original plasterwork give the house strong curb appeal, while the conservatory and adjoining kitchen create useful everyday living space. The rear garden, outbuilding with electricity, garage and off-street parking are practical assets for vehicle storage, hobbies or future landscaping.
Internally the layout includes a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite, two generous double bedrooms upstairs and a convenient first-floor W/C. The property is largely well maintained but shows some dated fittings and areas that will benefit from updating to modern standards. There is mention of potential damp in the hallway and the interior generally requires sympathetic modernisation in places.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is average; the property sits in a deprived local area classification which may affect resale outlook. Tenure is not specified and should be confirmed. Overall this home is best for buyers who value period character and outdoor space and are prepared to invest modestly to refresh interior finishes and address minor maintenance items.
