Summary - 285, Penhill Drive SN2 5HG
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable, low-maintenance family or rental opportunity near North Swindon amenities.
Chain free, freehold tenure
This three-bedroom mid-terrace in Penhill Drive is offered chain free and suits first-time buyers or investors seeking straightforward accommodation. The ground floor includes a sitting/dining room with a gas fire, a fitted kitchen and a sun room that opens onto a low-maintenance rear garden with patio and two brick storage sheds. Upstairs provides three generous bedrooms and a large wet room — practical, adaptable space rather than recent high-end refurbishment.
The property is double glazed and heated by a mains gas boiler and radiators, with filled cavity walls typical of mid‑20th century construction. The plot and garden are modest and designed for low upkeep, while the overall internal condition is serviceable but somewhat dated in places; kitchen and wet room appear functional rather than modernised. The house is mid-terrace with small front gravel yard and side access to the rear.
Location is on the edge of North Swindon with local shops, bus links and several primary and secondary schools nearby. The area has higher-than-average crime and significant deprivation indicators, which buyers should factor into long-term plans. Chain-free ownership and freehold tenure give straightforward transaction potential, making this a practical buy for someone wanting immediate occupation or a let-ready three-bedroom property.
Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking affordable, low-maintenance family accommodation or a rental investment, but allow for modest updating work if a more modern finish is required.
