Pilton Vale, Malpas

GUIDE PRICE £200,000-£220,000

Set on Pilton Vale in the quiet residential pocket of Malpas, this three-bedroom home is offered with no onward chain and is ready for someone to make it their own.

Inside, the lounge and dining area connect naturally, giving the ground floor a sociable, open feel while still keeping things defined. Being dual aspect, the room draws in natural light from two sides, giving it a bright and airy feel throughout the day. The kitchen is a generous space with plenty of storage and room to cook properly, and doors that open straight onto the garden — it functions well as it is, though it does offer scope for someone to put their own mark on it.

Upstairs are two good-sized doubles and a third single. The main bedroom is a generous room with varnished wooden floorboards and a large integrated mirrored wardrobe running the full length of the longest wall, with double-glazed windows looking out over the front garden and pedestrian pathway beyond. The second bedroom is also a double with a fitted mirrored wardrobe and a spacious storage cupboard, and looks out over the rear garden. The third bedroom is a single with a large storage cupboard built over the angled ceiling of the stairway, which lends itself well to a custom fitted bed frame with storage underneath, making it a practical and characterful little room. The bathroom is a decent size and fully functional, though like the kitchen, it offers an opportunity to update and personalise to your own taste.

Outside, the gardens front and rear are flat and easy to manage — a blank canvas for anyone who wants to put their own stamp on the outdoor space. The front looks onto a pedestrian pathway rather than a road, so there's no passing traffic and a noticeably calmer feel to the street. At the rear, a driveway leads to the garage with space for one or two vehicles, and a hedged seating area offers a secluded spot to sit out. The wider area has plenty going for it too — Parc y Prior is a short walk for a drink, Charlie's 1922 is a well-regarded local fish bar, and Parc Pantry has built a reputation for sandwiches worth going out of your way for. The Brecon and Monmouthshire Canal and a nearby nature walk are both within easy reach for those who like to get outside. For commuters, the M4 is easily accessible, putting Cardiff to the west and Bristol to the east well within range. and a nearby nature walk are both within easy reach for those who like to get outside.

A solid family home in a settled location, offered chain-free and ready to go.
