Property description

Like most similar semis built in the 1930’s and 40’s it’s well built with good size rooms upstairs and downstairs. It’s clean and tidy so there’s nothing to stop you from moving in.

But chances are you’ll want to put your own stamp on it and bring it up to date.

The quickest and easiest way to make a big difference would be a lick of paint and new flooring throughout.

Longer term you might want to think about opening up the reception rooms/kitchen or even extending.

The downstairs layout is traditional - with a lounge at the front, a separate dining room then the kitchen next door.

Neither the kitchen or dining room are huge - which could be one reason to open them up to create a more open cooking and dining space.

You’d probably want to think about that before updating the kitchen.

Upstairs there’s three bedrooms - two doubles and a single - along with the bathroom.

The bathroom actually has a large walk in shower rather than a bath. It’s the most modern room in the house but if you have young kids (or are thinking of starting a family) you might prefer to put a bath back in.

The back garden is pretty big, on four levels with paving nearest the house, two levels of lawn and a paved seating area at the top.

There’s also a lean-to porch and a separate outbuilding which will be handy for storage and along with housing the original outside loo!

The front of the house has a low maintenance gravel garden with steps up to the house. On a clear day the elevated hillside position does give you superb sea views from the garden, lounge and front bedroom.

There’s no drive or off street parking but if you do have a car there’s plenty of parking in the lay-by opposite.

If you don’t have a car you can walk into town in around half an hour, or there’s a choice of frequent buses which all take around twenty minutes.

If you’re just after a pint of milk or a paper you don’t even need to go into town. Nearby Moorclose has its own handful of stores, with a post office, off-licence and Spar. They're all less than 10 minutes walk from the house.

For your weekly shop Asda is only 2 minutes away in the car.

This three bedroom property will be ideal if you’re starting a family.

Westfield Nursery & Primary School (rated Good by Ofsted) is little more than five minutes walk away. A little further are Victoria Infant and Junior Schools (rated Outstanding and Good).

You’re getting a lot of house for your money and it's perfect for a couple or family looking to really make it their own.
