About this home

Welcome to this intriguing semi-detached home, hidden away in a prime position down a small driveway shared by only two homes. Surrounded by lush greenery, this property offers unparalleled privacy and boasts wonderful views of the Bowerham Tennis Club courts.

Built-in the 1960s, this flat-roofed house may appear modest at first glance, but its double-fronted design and integral garage tell a different story. The property includes the land in front, except for a small patch of lawn and a planted border, rented from the council for just £1 a year.

Step inside to discover a home with an interesting and versatile layout. The ground floor features an entrance hallway leading to an open-plan kitchen diner. The kitchen diner extends into a conservatory, creating a bright and airy space perfect for dining and entertaining. There is also a third room on this floor, currently used as a single bedroom, but flexible for other purposes. The main family bathroom is set just off the hallway.

The first floor reveals the true expanse of this home. Extending over the garage, it offers a spacious living area that can accommodate various setups. Additionally, there are two double bedrooms and a convenient WC, making it ideal for family living.

Outside, the property continues to impress with an enclosed private garden at the rear, providing a serene space for relaxation. The front of the house features a driveway with a turning circle, ensuring ample parking space. A small gate at the front offers direct access to the playing fields, and a brook running along the edge of the garden adds to the tranquil setting.

This home is equipped with uPVC double glazing and gas central heating, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency. While some buyers may prefer to maintain its current layout, others might see the potential to extend and modify to suit their needs.

In summary, this semi-detached house offers a unique opportunity to own a property with excellent privacy, beautiful views, and great potential for customization. Its prime location, versatile layout, and charming surroundings make it a must-see for anyone seeking a distinctive home with room to grow.

Marketing. Every single property listing on Rightmove is individually assessed over a 6 month period. Agents' websites are assessed including their social media marketing. Client reviews are also taken into consideration.

Service. Every agent has to go through a rigorous process of mystery shops to identify the service levels they offer.

Results. Agents' Sales and lettings results are checked. Did the property sell/let? How long did it take? Did it fall through?

Every single estate agent that advertises on Rightmove is automatically entered. That is over 15,000 different companies and 22,000 individual offices.. Less than 1% of agents in the UK achieved a double-gold status. This means they are ranked as gold-standard agents in both sales and lettings.
