Guide price £340,000–£350,000. This three-bedroom detached house on Old Woods Hill sits on a large plot and offers family-friendly living across multiple levels. The modern kitchen with island and the bright living room create appealing social spaces, while a sun house and generous garden extend the home outdoors for play and relaxation.
Constructed in the 1930s–1940s, the property has been updated with double glazing and contemporary bathrooms, but the cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation — upgrading could reduce energy costs. The house includes a double garage and off-street parking, plus good broadband and excellent mobile signal, making it practical for home working and family connectivity.
Practical considerations: local crime rates are higher than average and the wider area is classified as an ageing urban community; buyers should factor this into location choice. Council tax is moderate. Overall this is a spacious, comfortable detached family home with scope for energy-efficiency improvements and cosmetic updating to personalise.
Internal inspection is recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, room sizes and garden. The nearby schools include several rated Good and two grammar schools highly ranked for performance, making the location suitable for families focused on education.
