OWNERS' INSIGHT

"The house has been a wonderful home for our family for sixty years, and it is a very emotional decision to sell when reminiscing on all the magical memories we have made. We are incredibly lucky to have such wonderful neighbours, with our directly adjoining neighbours, and two others having lived in their homes a similar timeframe. We have always loved the convenience, and now having a fourth generation children running around when visiting, the house and garden gives ample space. Local parks, shops, and schools are all close at hand."

STEP INSIDE

An obscure, double glazed entrance door with storm porch opens to the spacious RECEPTION HALL with ample natural light and understairs storage. The KITCHEN is fitted with a range of white units and granite effect work tops with inset sink. Provisions for cooker, washing machine, and undercounter fridge. Worcester gas fired boiler, tiled floor, window and obscure door with sidescreen picture windows opens to the rear garden. The SITTING/DINING ROOM is open plan, yet could easily revert to the two original reception rooms. The dining room enjoys a bay window overlooking the walled front garden and green beyond. Sitting room with door and sidescreen windows opening and overlooking the attractive rear garden. Fire surround and mantel with inset living flame effect electric fire, and storage to each alcove.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
