This generously extended Victorian semi offers flexible family living across three floors. The ground floor features a spacious lounge with French doors, a modern kitchen with island and granite worktops, dining room and handy WC — ideal for everyday family use and entertaining. Upstairs there are five bedrooms in total, with two en-suite shower rooms and a master with dressing area, providing space for a growing or multi-generation household.
Practical aspects are strong: the house has a new combi boiler with gas central heating, double glazing and external wall insulation on the solid brick construction. A privately enclosed lawn and patio with outbuilding provide secure outdoor space for children and pets, while off-street parking plus additional resident parking at the lane end addresses vehicle needs in this area.
Location suits families who prioritise schools and local amenities. Outstanding-rated infant and junior schools and several good secondary options lie within walking distance, and local shops, pubs and transport links are nearby. The property is freehold with low council tax (Band B), which helps running costs.
Be frank about the neighbourhood: the immediate area is described as very deprived with above-average crime levels. Buyers should weigh this against the house’s strong accommodation and transport/schooling convenience. The home is well-presented but, given age and size, some buyers may wish to update certain rooms to their taste over time.
