A characterful four-bedroom semi-detached Edwardian home set in the sought-after Lakes Conservation Area, offered chain-free and ready for a family to make it their own. The property spans approximately 1,850 sq ft with generous room proportions, high ceilings and many original features such as sash-style bays, fireplaces and an original morning-room dresser. The mature rear garden extends to just over 70ft, providing valuable outdoor space for children and entertaining.
The house currently offers two principal reception rooms, a breakfast/morning room and a kitchen on the ground floor, with four bedrooms and a bathroom plus separate WC upstairs. Three bedrooms retain original fitted wardrobes; three bedrooms are large doubles. Practical benefits include mains gas central heating (boiler and radiators), double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signal in an area classed as affluent with low crime.
There is clear potential to modernise and reconfigure to suit contemporary family life — opening up spaces or updating kitchens and bathrooms will add significant value. Note the property is built of solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation, so thermal upgrades would improve comfort and running costs. There is only one main bathroom (plus WC) for four bedrooms, and council tax is described as quite expensive, both relevant for family budgeting.
Local amenities are strong for families: a mix of state and independent schools nearby (including an Ofsted-rated Outstanding girls’ secondary and a Good primary), parks, sports and leisure facilities, shops and cafés. Excellent transport links, fast broadband and an affluent, professionally qualified local population make this a desirable location for long-term family living.
