The area is known for its character properties and community feel, while still being within easy reach of shops, cafes and green spaces.
Permit parking is available on the road, adding practicality to this desirable location.
The property itself is a charming semi-detached house with classic red-brick elevations and bay-fronted windows, blending traditional character with modern presentation.
The current owner has thoughtfully improved the home, including the installation of a stylish modern bathroom, plantation shutters, an upgraded front door and enhanced fencing to the rear, creating a greater sense of privacy and a more enclosed garden setting.

A modern ground floor shower room completes the downstairs layout. Upstairs, the property offers three bedrooms, all presented in a neutral and comfortable style.
The main bedroom benefits from built-in storage, while the additional rooms provide flexibility for family use, guests or a home office.
There is also potential to further enhance the accommodation, with scope for a loft conversion subject to the usual planning permissions, as well as the possibility of incorporating an en-suite bathroom to suit a buyer’s needs.
Externally, the rear garden is a particular feature, offering a private and enclosed space with a patio area for outdoor seating and a lawn beyond, bordered by fencing and mature planting.
The improvements to the boundaries help create a more secluded environment, ideal for relaxing or entertaining during warmer months, with useful storage and space for garden furniture.
