Practical family home near schools and East Park with low running costs.
Off-street private driveway for parking
This mid-terraced three-bedroom home on Sherwood Avenue offers practical family living with genuine everyday conveniences. A private driveway provides off-street parking and the fully enclosed rear garden is designed for low maintenance — useful for busy households and young children. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, and its compact layout (around 915 sq ft) fits typical family needs.
Positioned close to local schools, bus links and within walking distance of East Park, the house suits families wanting easy access to outdoor space and city amenities. Council tax is very low, and flooding risk is reported as low, which supports affordable running costs. The layout includes an entrance hallway, lounge, dining kitchen, downstairs WC, three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Buyers should note the building is a 1930s solid-brick terrace and walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation; there may be scope for improving thermal performance. The neighbourhood sits within a more deprived area classification, and local crime is average — factors to weigh alongside the property’s affordability and location. The garden and interior offer scope to personalise or update to modern tastes.
Overall, this is a straightforward, budget-friendly three-bed family home with useful parking and low-maintenance outside space. It will suit a family looking for a practical base close to schools and parkland, or an owner-occupier willing to carry modest improvements to increase comfort and value.
