Two-bed freehold with large driveway and refurbishment potential, no upward chain.
Corner plot with private driveway for up to four vehicles
Set on a corner plot on Hernefield Road, this two-bedroom semi-detached house offers clear potential for a buyer prepared to update and personalise. The property is freehold, offered with no upward chain, and benefits from a private driveway that currently fits multiple vehicles — a rare asset in the area and useful if you plan to extend (subject to planning permission).
The layout is straightforward and family-friendly: an enclosed porch, entrance hall, long through lounge/dining room, kitchen and side entrance on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. The rear garden has paved and lawn areas plus a timber shed. Practical details include mains gas central heating, double glazing where specified, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Important to note: the house is a non-standard, system-built construction (concrete rather than traditional brick) and the external walls are assumed to have no insulation. Double glazing appears to pre-date 2002 and the Energy Performance Rating is D. The property will need some renovation and likely thermal upgrades to meet modern standards. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with above-average recorded crime; buyers should weigh location factors alongside the property’s value potential.
This home suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a lower entry price and clear scope to add value through refurbishment, insulation improvements, and possible extension (subject to consents). Its large driveway, corner plot and no chain make it an attractive project for someone wanting space and flexibility rather than a turnkey move-in.
