Set high on a wooded hillside with wide Golden Valley views, this substantial four-bedroom semi-detached home offers flexible family living across three floors. Bright reception rooms, multiple sets of French doors and a principal sitting room with balcony create strong indoor–outdoor flow to terraced patios and over half an acre of landscaped, sloping gardens. The kitchen/breakfast room is well fitted and the house includes a utility, cloakroom, landing study area and a useful large wooden shed.
Practical strengths include generous off-street parking, mains gas central heating plus a wood-burning stove, and double glazing fitted after 2002. The layout already functions as a comfortable family home while offering scope to reconfigure to provide up to six bedrooms if required. The property sits in an affluent, low-crime area with very good mobile signal and nearby highly rated schools, making it well suited to families seeking space and countryside views.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house uses a shared septic tank rather than mains drainage, broadband speeds are very slow, and the drive shares vehicular access with a neighbour. The construction dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s and walls have partial cavity insulation (assumed), so some buyers may choose to upgrade insulation or modernise certain services over time.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home on a large plot within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It will suit buyers who prioritise privacy, outdoor space and flexible living, and who are comfortable addressing modest service or connectivity improvements to personalise the house further.
