Mona Avenue, Crookes

Most houses around here don’t come with a garage, off-street parking and their own private garden, which is exactly what makes this one stand out. Set back on a quiet cul-de-sac, it’s got a real sense of privacy while still offering practical space for everyday life. Whether you’re buying your first home or simply looking for somewhere easy to settle into, this one is well worth a look.

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this is the sort of home that works brilliantly for first-time buyers, young families or anyone looking for a property that’s easy to move straight into while still offering plenty of potential to make it their own over time.

The lounge immediately feels welcoming, with space for comfortable sofas centred around a fireplace that creates a natural focal point for the room. A window to the front allows plenty of natural light to flow in, while stairs rise to the first floor and a door leads through to the heart of the home at the rear.

The kitchen and dining room is a practical and sociable space, split into two distinct zones. The kitchen itself is arranged in an L-shape with a range of units and integrated appliances, while the dining area provides plenty of room for a large table and chairs. With patio doors opening directly onto the garden, it’s easy to imagine summer evenings with the doors thrown open, friends gathered around the table and children or pets enjoying the outdoor space.

The garage is directly accessible from the kitchen and provides excellent additional storage, along with plumbing and space for a washing machine, helping to keep the main living accommodation clutter free.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, giving flexibility whether you need space for a growing family, a nursery, guest room or somewhere to work from home. The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and benefits from built-in wardrobes, while the second double bedroom sits at the front of the property. Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom fitted with a bath and shower above, wash basin and WC.

Outside, the rear garden has been designed to be low maintenance, making it ideal for busy lifestyles. A combination of paving and gravel provides plenty of space for outdoor seating, pots and planting, while the raised flowerbed at the rear adds colour and interest throughout the year. Access is available both from the dining area and via the side of the property.

Parking is well catered for, with resident parking available within the cul-de-sac, along with an additional space in front of the garage. The garage itself benefits from an electric up-and-over door, providing secure parking, storage or workshop space depending on your needs.
