This three-bedroom mid-terrace offers almost 1,000 sq ft of practical family living just a short walk from schools and the mainline station. A large, light-filled sitting room and a refitted kitchen/breakfast room with direct garden access create an easy daily layout for children and entertaining. The generous rear garden provides private outdoor space for play and summer dining.
Practical features include a paved driveway providing off-street parking and loft storage accessed from the first floor. The house was built in the 1930s–1940s, has cavity walls and double glazing installed before 2002, and is served by mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. There is potential to extend further, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.
Honest points to note: the property has a single family bathroom, sits in an area with higher local crime rates, and some elements (older double glazing, cosmetic finishes) may benefit from updating. Any extension or major reconfiguration will require planning approval. Overall this is a practical, well-located family home with clear scope to add value through sensible updating and permitted extension.
