This tidy two-bedroom semi-detached house offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Silksworth. The ground floor flows from a bay-front lounge through a dining room into a conservatory, with a separate kitchen and handy outhouse/utility. Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a wet room; the layout suits first-time buyers or a small family wanting ready-to-live-in accommodation.
Practical benefits include low-maintenance front and rear gardens, a modest private plot with some off-street space, mains gas central heating and double glazing. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low, and the location is convenient for local shops, several good primary schools and direct access to the A19 and city centre.
Notable matters: the solar panels are on a lease started in 2013 (25-year term), so the lease has limited years remaining — prospective buyers should check terms and any payments. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, and interior finishes are dated in places, so cosmetic updating will likely be required to modernise the home.
Overall this freehold property offers sensible space (around 696 sq ft) and clear family/first-home appeal with easy access to amenities; buyers wanting a move-in option who don’t mind some modernisation will find genuine value here.
