This attractively renovated three-bedroom detached home on Hobson Drive blends a traditional bay-fronted exterior with a bright, contemporary interior. The standout open-plan family dining kitchen opens via French doors onto a porcelain-tiled patio and generous, recently re-landscaped rear garden — a practical, low-maintenance space for family life and summer entertaining.
Internals are presented ready to move into: double glazing throughout, gas central heating from a combination boiler, modern fitted kitchen, and a contemporary four-piece bathroom with a slipper bath and separate shower. A useful external utility cupboard provides plumbing for a washing machine, and there is under-stairs storage plus a garage for additional space.
Practical considerations: the overall internal size is modest at about 693 sq ft and there is a single family bathroom, which may be tight for larger households. The forecourt is block-paved and could accommodate off-street parking for at least two vehicles but requires a drop kerb (subject to permission). Crime levels and area deprivation are average; broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Situated in a popular suburban pocket within walking distance of local shops, bus routes and several well-rated primary and secondary schools, this freehold property suits growing families seeking a move-in-ready house with scope to personalise. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the blend of period exterior and contemporary living space.
