This detached four-bedroom home on Parker Close offers a spacious family layout in a quiet Parkwood cul-de-sac. The ground floor features an open-plan lounge/diner, a sunny conservatory overlooking an east-facing garden of approximately 47ft x 32ft, plus a country-style kitchen and convenient downstairs W/C. An integral garage is currently used as storage/utility space and large block-paved driveway provides multiple off-street parking spaces.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms and a single family bathroom with shower-over-bath; three bedrooms have built-in storage and the second bedroom includes a handy wash basin. The property was built in the 1980s, has double glazing installed post-2002, cavity wall insulation (assumed) and mains gas central heating, making it comfortable for everyday family living.
Practical notes: the house measures about 901 sq ft (relatively small for four doubles), décor in places is dated and would benefit from modernisation to maximise value. Council tax is above average for the area, and the integral garage’s current use reduces vehicle storage. Overall this home suits a family wanting good local schools, shops and transport links with scope to update interiors and add personal style.
Location strengths include easy walking access to Parkwood Shopping Centre, nearby primary and secondary schools (most rated Good), low local crime and fast broadband/mobile signal. The plot provides a decent rear garden with established shrubs and mature trees, ideal for morning sun and family outdoor use.
