Light-filled and surprisingly spacious, this three-bedroom semi delivers strong practical features for first-time buyers or a growing family. The large lounge/diner flows into an open-plan kitchen, while a generous driveway and detached garage provide rare, secure off-street parking for up to four cars — a genuine local advantage. The low-maintenance rear garden is easy to manage and backs onto nearby amenities including shops, schools and public transport links to the A50.
The house dates from the 1930s and is built in solid brick with double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. There’s clear potential to modernise and add value — layout and room sizes are workable, and the property is presented for immediate occupation but would reward modest updating to kitchens, bathroom and cosmetic finishes. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting remote working and family connectivity.
Be upfront: the area scores high for crime and is classified as deprived, which will affect some buyers’ decisions and mortgage or insurance considerations. The property has no recorded flood risk, is freehold and council tax is low. Buyers should note assumed solid-wall construction with no cavity insulation and may want to budget for energy-efficiency improvements.
Overall this is a pragmatic purchase: well-located, good parking and three bedrooms at an affordable price. It suits buyers seeking an entry-level family home with refurbishment potential or an investor aiming for a steady rental in a well-served suburb.
