Full of warmth and character, this older-style semi-detached home has been cherished by the same family for over 40 years — and it’s ready to welcome a new family to make their own memories here. Set in a friendly and convenient location, this home is just a short walk from the supermarket, primary school, and town centre, as well as lovely open green spaces for dog walks and outdoor adventures.

Inside, there’s plenty of space and flexibility for everyday family life. Upstairs, you’ll find three comfortable double bedrooms, a family shower room, and even a walk-in attic store room — perfect for tucking away toys, suitcases, or keepsakes. Downstairs, the home has a lovely flow and family feel. The front porch includes a handy cupboard for coats, boots, and shoes, leading into a sitting room with a feature fireplace and gas fire — the heart of the home for relaxed evenings together. There’s also a versatile office or hobbies room, which could easily become a fourth bedroom if needed, and a dining room where the family can gather for meals. The good-sized kitchen includes a breakfast bar, ideal for busy mornings or after-school snacks. From the rear porch, you’ll find access to both the cloakroom and the sunny back garden.

Outside, there’s a long driveway, a garage with power, and a useful studio attached — an ideal space for a home office, workshop, or creative project. The enclosed rear garden is a real highlight — sunny, safe, and perfect for children and pets to play or for summer barbecues and family gatherings.

This is a home that’s been filled with love for decades — and now offers the perfect opportunity for a new family to make it their own.
