With plenty to recommend it, this attractive Edwardian is an immediately liveable family home with the potential to improve further. The elegant period features, such as a welcoming entrance and high ceilings at the front, add to the sense of comfort and space, and the central passage flows smoothly to the back. While the decent-sized main bedrooms should keep tweenies and teens happy, the master does unfortunately lack an ensuite. That said, the living room at the front could comfortably accommodate one, so there does exist the option to turn it into a master bedroom, should you wish to develop the rear of the property and extend the family zone. The kitchen/meals area is a slightly awkward shape and doesn't allow for expansive use of the space, but the back of the home is generally quite comfortable. It could all be reworked and transformed by pushing back and squaring up, which would improve the flow while making the most of the northern light. Although there is a side driveway, it looks too narrow to develop as a garage, so drivers may have to make do with the parking space at front of the property. A notable plus is the location just a few doors down from Harleston Park and its play equipment, which is bound to appeal to younger families. All up, this a good, ready-to-go family home, that will appeal equally to families with small children as to those with young teens. With some sound advice and a little investment, it could also be taken to the next level.
