Set on a desirable Knighton street, this extended 1930s semi-detached home offers genuine family space over two floors. Period features – bay windows, stained glass, timber gable detail and original wood flooring – give character throughout, while a wide frontage, garage and block-paved driveway provide convenient off-street parking.
The ground floor layout includes two reception rooms (both with bay windows), a breakfast room, kitchen and a ground-floor shower room with garage access. Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, a bathroom plus separate WC and a boarded loft for extra storage. A large, mature rear garden with patio and lawn suits family life and outdoor entertaining.
The property is sold freehold with vacant possession and no onward chain, and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity. It is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools and local amenities, making it practical for families.
Practical note: the house requires updating and renovation; walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation and some modernisation of services may be needed. It is priced to reflect the renovation required and will suit buyers looking to add value or restore period detail rather than those seeking a move-in-ready finish.
