This compact three-bedroom semi offers an affordable, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers seeking a suburban starter home. The property is freehold, with driveway parking, a private rear garden and a versatile converted garage now used as a playroom/office — useful extra living space for families or home workers.
The ground floor is arranged around a bright lounge with bay window and an open kitchen/diner opening onto the garden. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a shower room; total internal floor area is small (around 646 sq ft), so rooms are best suited to a young family or couple needing an extra bedroom or workspace rather than large living spaces.
Practical running costs are reasonable: council tax Band B, mains gas boiler and double glazing. Broadband and mobile coverage are reported as strong in the area, and the location benefits from nearby amenities, major road links and Rake Lane Hospital.
Be aware of material limitations: the plot and overall footprint are small, there is only one bathroom, and the former garage conversion reduces covered storage/garage space. The immediate area is in a deprived neighbourhood with above-average crime statistics; prospective buyers should view in person and consider local environment and security needs. A basic survey is recommended to confirm condition and services before purchase.
