About
A well-arranged four-bedroom semi-detached home on Mitchcroft Road, offering just over 1,200 sq ft of accommodation across three floors, with a layout that suits family life particularly well.
Updated by the current owner, the house has a practical modern feel, good natural light, and the useful separation of living, working and sleeping space that becomes increasingly valuable over time.
The ground floor is arranged around a central hall, with a sitting room to one side and a kitchen/dining room to the other.
The sitting room has a comfortable, easy-to-furnish scale and opens directly to the garden, giving the main living space a natural connection outside.
The light and bright kitchen/dining room is a strong everyday room, with a built-in dining nook, fitted cabinetry, integrated appliances and a useful utility-style recess, keeping the working parts of the house separate from the sitting room.
A cloakroom completes the ground floor. The first floor provides two bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, including a generous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room.
The second bedroom is currently used as a home office, showing the flexibility of the layout without compromising the bedroom count and is served by a 3-piece family bathroom.
On the top floor are two further bedrooms and an additional WC, making the house particularly practical for children, guests or continued home working.
The landscaped rear garden is a meaningful part of the appeal.
It has been arranged to be both attractive and usable, with a paved seating area beneath a pergola immediately outside the sitting room, a manageable lawn beyond, and a sense of enclosure that works well for everyday family life.
A gate to the rear provides practical access to the driveway and garage, which is particularly useful for bikes, bins, gardening equipment and day-to-day comings and goings.
