This extended semi-detached Edwardian home offers five bedrooms across three storeys, ideal for growing families who need flexible space. The property retains period character — bay windows, picture rails and a feature fireplace — combined with a modern open plan kitchen/dining area and French doors that open onto a private rear garden.
Practical everyday living is supported by off-road parking with an electric car charging point, integrated appliances, and useful built-in storage. Local amenities and green space are close by, with St James Park and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach, making the location family-friendly.
Buyers should note the house is an older build (c.1930–1949) with electric storage heating and assumed cavity walls without insulation, so heating costs and energy efficiency may be higher than modern homes. The plot and front garden are small, and while the home is extended and well-presented, there is scope for further updating in places to suit contemporary tastes.
Freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal add everyday convenience. This is a practical, characterful five-bedroom home in Upper Shirley suited to families seeking space and local schools, with clear potential to improve energy performance and modernise to personal preference.
