Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Walderslade, this much loved three bedroom semi detached home is sold with no forward chain and is ready to move straight into, offering an easy and welcoming next step whether you are buying your first home or looking for more space for a growing family. From the moment you arrive, the off-road parking for two cars sets the tone for everyday convenience, while the neat frontage and entrance porch create a reassuring first impression.

Step inside and the entrance hallway immediately feels calm and well cared for, leading through to two reception rooms that give the house a natural flow and flexibility. The lounge is a comfortable place to unwind, while the dining room works just as well for family meals as it does for entertaining friends. To the rear, the home has been thoughtfully extended to create a contemporary kitchen breakfast room that really becomes the heart of the house. Finished in a modern style and filled with natural light, it is a space that invites slow mornings over coffee and easy evenings cooking together, with plenty of room to sit and chat. A downstairs WC adds everyday practicality without interrupting the flow of the ground floor.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues with three well proportioned bedrooms that can adapt as life changes, whether you need children’s rooms, a home office or a guest bedroom. The family bathroom is smart and well finished, continuing the feeling that this is a home that has been carefully maintained and improved over time.

Outside, the rear garden offers a private spot to enjoy warmer days, ideal for barbecues, playtime or simply switching off at the end of the day. The wider setting completes the lifestyle on offer, with well regarded school catchment areas close by, local shops and amenities within easy reach in Walderslade Village, and excellent access to the A2 and M2 making commuting straightforward while still enjoying a quieter residential setting.

What the owner says...

"I purchased rush close early  2011 early days of single parenting with a 1yr old and 3yr old. Loved every minute of being at a rush close, Making this house our home. Perfect property at the end of the cul de sac. All the kids out playing in the quiet road together, neighbours all getting along, a real sense of community and looking out for one another. Felt so safe and happy not to mention being so close to so many shops - kids school and the motorway is very handy. Only selling due to personal progression and kids now an adult and early teens so need more space otherwise I’d stay forever. Wishing the new owner many happy memories to be had just as the 3 of us have."
