This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Leslie Avenue offers straightforward family living with a large rear garden and flexible ground-floor space. The open-plan lounge, dining area and kitchen create a sociable hub for everyday life and for hosting friends or family. Two generous double bedrooms plus a larger-than-average single provide practical sleeping and work-from-home options.
The property is freehold, built in the mid-20th century and extends to about 805 sq ft. It benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a cheap council tax band, making running costs reasonable. Local amenities are within easy reach and the home sits close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools, frequent bus services and a mainline rail link for commutes.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is modest in overall size for a family home and the walls are cavity without added insulation, so upgrading insulation could improve comfort and running costs. There is only one bathroom for three bedrooms. The wider neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime levels; purchasers should satisfy themselves about local safety and security measures.
Taken as a practical, ready-to-live-in property with scope for targeted improvement, this home suits families seeking outdoor space, convenient transport links and a friendly local school network. Simple modernisation—insulation, cosmetic updates or reconfiguration—would add value and enhance everyday comfort.
