Property Tour
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Orchard Crescent offers families and first-time buyers a move-in-ready property in a quiet cul-de-sac location. The house is in really good condition throughout, with a recently renovated bathroom and modern kitchen. What genuinely sets this property apart is the extraordinarily large garden. Being a corner plot within the crescent means the outdoor space is broadly twice the size of an average garden for the area. Combined with excellent school catchments (including Alderman White Secondary School), proximity to the Eskdale tram stop (0.5 miles), and off-road parking for three vehicles, this is a practical family home in a safe, residential area.
The ground floor provides well-proportioned living space. The central hallway provides access to all rooms and has an external door to the side. The kitchen features granite-effect laminate worktops and white units with good contrast from white tiled splashback and dark tiled flooring. Equipped with a gas hob, electric oven, extractor fan, and space for a dishwasher and washing machine, with UPVC window and door to the garden. A separate pantry houses the gas boiler. The living and dining room is a large open-plan space with the living end featuring a gas fireplace and laminate wooden flooring at the front, while the dining end overlooks the garden. There's also a downstairs WC.
Upstairs, bedroom one is a large double at the back overlooking the garden with light green feature wall, soft grey carpets, and space for large wardrobes and chest of drawers. Bedroom two at the front is a good-sized double with blue feature wall and soft grey carpet. Bedroom three can accommodate a double bed and features wooden laminate flooring, making it well-suited as a guest room or home office. The family bathroom has been recently renovated with a vanity unit, a white porcelain toilet, a bath with a mains-fed shower for continuous hot water, and a heated towel rail.
The garden is significantly larger than average, with raised lawn area, hardstanding, and established borders with shrubs and spring bulbs. A twin brick-built outhouse provides storage for children's toys, bikes, tools, and garden furniture. The property has an EPC rating of C.
