Two generous reception rooms with period fireplaces

Set on a generous plot within Chopwell Wood, this Edwardian semi-detached home pairs period character with practical family living. Two large reception rooms, a fitted dining kitchen and useful utility/WC deliver flexible downstairs space for daily life and entertaining. The property is freehold and includes a double garage and large gardens ideal for children, pets or gardening projects.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom; the principal bedroom benefits from full-wall built-in wardrobes. The house has traditional features such as fireplaces and a stone facade that give it strong curb appeal and scope for sensitive modernisation.
Buyers should note clear, material drawbacks: the EPC is currently G and the house uses LPG boiler heating with solid brick walls assumed uninsulated — insulating and upgrading services would improve comfort and running costs. Broadband speeds are very slow, and the wider area shows relative deprivation and limited local services due to its hamlet setting.
This home will suit buyers wanting countryside character, large outdoor space and room to improve energy efficiency. Early viewing is recommended for families or renovators who value setting and potential over turnkey condition.
