Well-presented family home with open rear views and scope to personalise..
Freehold three-bedroom semi-detached with decent plot and side access
A well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home on Marston Lane offering straightforward family living and open rear views. The house has a roomy through lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, ground-floor cloakroom and three first-floor bedrooms — a practical layout for everyday life. The rear garden and paved patio take full advantage of the open outlook, and outbuildings provide useful storage and powered workshop space.
Constructed in the mid-20th century, the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a decent plot with off-street gated side access. Freehold tenure, Council Tax Band B and an average overall size make this a sensible option for growing families or purchasers seeking a long-term home with potential to update and personalise.
Buyers should note the EPC rating of D and that the wider area scores as deprived with above-average crime; these factors may affect running costs and resale expectations. Parts of the locality are ex-coal mining ground — a surveyor’s report is recommended. While the house is well presented, buyers seeking a fully modernised energy rating or a quieter neighbourhood may need to factor in improvement works.
Overall, the property offers practical living space, scope for modest updating and a pleasant rear aspect. It suits buyers looking for value in a family-friendly layout with straightforward maintenance obligations and opportunities to add personal upgrade value.
