Vendor's Notes:
This house has been in our family for the last 60 years, and I grew up here. It faces NNE, so the mornings are always filled with soft, natural light, and the garden, facing SSW, gets plenty of sunshine throughout the day. The roof is about 50 years old now, but it's held up well. The loft is still in good condition - we used to store all sorts of family stuff up there.
The plumbing has always been reliable, with copper piping throughout. There's no boiler at the moment, but there's a gas pipe under the hall floor if anyone wanted to fit one. We're in the process of sorting the electrical safety certificate, and the fuse box is due to be updated next year.
There's plenty of parking with a private driveway that fits a couple of cars. The area is really quiet - we never had much noise from the road. The house is chain-free now, as probate has already been granted.
We've never had any issues with woodworm, rot, or pests. The house does need a bit of modernisation, but it's solid. There's an alarm system that Dad put in, and it still works.
It's freehold, so no service charges or ground rent. EDF provides the electricity, and the stopcock is in the kitchen and out on the pavement. Growing up here, we always felt safe - crime in the area has always been low. Public transport is just 100 metres away, and Crownhill Village, along with the CO-OP and Mayfair, is only a short walk from the house.
Widey Court School, where my siblings and I went, is also less than half a mile away. The council tax is band C, and there aren't any restrictions on making alterations to the property if the new owners want to. Broadband speeds have been decent with BT, and there are no environmental or boundary issues to worry about.
This house has been home to our family for as long as I can remember. It needs some updating, but it's been a wonderful place to grow up, and I hope the next owners will make just as many happy memories here as we did.
