3 Bedroom Detached House

GUIDE PRICE £280,000 - £290,000

We are delighted to present to the open market this well-proportioned and much-loved detached three-bedroom home on Bakewell Avenue, offered with no onward chain. Having been in the same ownership for over 40 years, this is a property that has grown with its family and now offers an exciting opportunity for the next owners to do the same. With generous living space, a versatile layout and a beautifully tended garden, it strikes a wonderful balance between comfort and potential, making it an ideal long-term home.

Stepping inside, the entrance hall provides a practical and welcoming introduction, with space to hang coats and store shoes, along with access to the main living area and stairs rising to the first floor. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open plan lounge and dining area, a bright and sociable space that easily accommodates both everyday living and entertaining. A bay window to the front brings in plenty of natural light, while large patio doors at the rear open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. The room is finished with a solid oak wood flooring, two central heating radiators and a gas fire, making it as cosy in the winter months as it is open and airy in the summer.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of eye and base level units with work surfaces over and an inset sink. There is flexibility for cooking arrangements with both electric and gas points available, along with an extractor fan above. Space is provided for a washing machine and fridge freezer, while an understairs pantry offers additional storage. A window overlooks the rear garden and a side door provides convenient external access. There is also an isolation switch within the kitchen which controls the water supply to the purpose-built outside toilet, adding a practical touch to the home’s external facilities.

Upstairs, the landing gives access to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and the loft. The loft itself has been fully boarded and fitted with lighting, accessed via a Fakro pull-down ladder, offering excellent additional storage or potential for further use. The bedrooms are all well-proportioned, with the main bedroom positioned at the front and benefitting from built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom sits to the rear, again a comfortable double with fitted storage, while the third bedroom, also with built-in wardrobes, provides a well-sized single bedroom.

The bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite, including a walk-in shower, wash hand basin set within vanity units and a WC, along with a central heating radiator and a window allowing for natural light and ventilation.

Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, a block paved driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a garden area with established plants and shrubs. The rear garden has clearly been a labour of love, thoughtfully planted with a variety of mature shrubs and fruit trees, creating a peaceful and private space that attracts wildlife and offers a real sense of retreat. A purpose-built garden office sits within the garden, complete with double glazed windows and bi-folding doors, offering an ideal solution for those working from home or in need of a separate workspace. In addition, there is a purpose-built outside toilet, a useful and practical feature, particularly when enjoying time outdoors.

To the side of the property, a secure covered area provides further storage and houses a shed, which is included in the sale. The garage has been adapted internally but retains power and lighting, and could be reinstated for vehicle use if desired. The home also benefits from an alarm system and external security lighting for added peace of mind.

Bakewell Avenue is well placed for access to local amenities, schools and public transport links, making it a convenient location for families and commuters alike. This is a home with a genuine sense of history and warmth, ready to welcome its next chapter.
