Description
This semi-detached property offers a fantastic opportunity for those looking for a home with generous proportions, traditional charm, and significant potential for personalization, offering a wealth of traditional character and surprisingly spacious living across three levels.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright, open-plan lounge and dining area, accented by ornate coving and classic feature fireplaces that create a warm, inviting atmosphere. This versatile living space flows naturally toward the rear, where double patio doors provide direct access to the garden and invite an abundance of natural light. Adjacent to the dining area is a well-proportioned galley kitchen, featuring striking monochrome floor tiling and extensive cabinetry that ensures ample storage for a busy household.
The first floor continues the theme of generous proportions, housing two well-sized double bedrooms, including a primary suite with wall-to-wall mirrored wardrobes. These rooms are served by an exceptionally large family bathroom, complete with a corner bathtub and a separate glass-enclosed shower. A further staircase leads to a versatile loft room, complete with a window to the rear elevation, offering an ideal footprint for a home office or hobby space.
Outside, the property is equally functional, boasting a gated front and a large rear garden that includes a paved patio and lawn, providing plenty of room for both outdoor entertaining and gardening. The home is fitted with solar panels and a heat source pump.
Located within a prime residential area that offers exceptional convenience for families and commuters alike, with several primary and secondary schools nearby, making the morning run a breeze.

Guide Price
An indication of the seller’s current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction
Reserve
The seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction
Proof of Identity
To comply with Money Laundering Regulations, on acceptance of an offer for purchase or letting, the buyer or prospective tenant will be required to provide identification to Butters John Bee. Where a property is due to go to auction, all bidders will be required to register prior to auction
