This 1930s semi‑detached family house offers spacious, characterful living across two storeys with genuine potential to add value. A large through lounge with a bay window, separate kitchen/diner, conservatory/garden room and three bedrooms suit everyday family life. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a driveway for off‑street parking.
The mature rear garden is a key asset — well planted with a patio and lawn, ideal for outdoor entertaining and family use. Local schools include several Ofsted Outstanding-rated options and the area has good public transport links and nearby amenities, which makes the location practical for commuting and family needs.
The property requires cosmetic renovation: some floors, kitchen fittings and decoration are dated and will need updating. The house has original solid brick walls (no insulation assumed), so thermal upgrades and loft/ wall insulation could be worthwhile improvements. Prospective buyers should note the wider area records above‑average crime statistics and a higher level of local deprivation.
For first‑time buyers, families or small-scale investors this home presents an opportunity to personalise and improve a solid period property. Council Tax Band B and driveway parking are practical benefits; early viewing is recommended to assess scope for refurbishment and modernisation.
