Semi-Detached Residence in Desirable Broomfield Cul-de-Sac

Nestled within a sought-after cul-de-sac in the charming village of Broomfield, this semi-detached residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a much-loved family home. Having been owned by the same family since new, the property has been well cared for and offers excellent potential for further extensions or alterations, subject to the necessary planning permissions—making it the perfect home for a growing family.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall leading to a shower room, which also includes a toilet, a well-appointed kitchen with a bay window overlooking the rear garden, and an expansive open-plan lounge/diner. The lounge/diner is flooded with natural light, benefitting from a front-facing bay window and patio doors that open into the garden, creating an inviting and spacious living area.

Upstairs, the first floor originally featured three bedrooms, but one has been thoughtfully partitioned over time to create a fourth bedroom, offering flexibility for various family needs. Externally, the property enjoys a generous south-facing rear garden, a driveway providing ample off-street parking, and a detached garage. While modernisation would enhance the space, the home offers a fantastic foundation with scope for further improvement and personalisation. Additionally, with no onward chain, the purchasing process is streamlined for prospective buyers.
