Nestled on the highly desirable Darrick Wood Road, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a rare blend of 1930s character, modern comfort, and exciting potential for extension (STPP). Immaculately presented throughout, the property retains many of its original period features, including stained glass windows and front door, original internal doors, picture rails, and authentic crazy paving, all showcasing the craftsmanship of its era.
The accommodation provides bright, well-proportioned living spaces with a warm and inviting feel, complemented by a large, private, and secure rear garden — a true highlight of the home. The garden is rich with history and nature, featuring an apple tree originating from the original Darrick Wood orchard of the 1920s, along with two established cherry trees, lilacs, and an abundance of wildlife. There is ample room to extend to the rear, side, garage, and loft (subject to planning), as well as space at the end of the garden for a home office, gym, or summer house.
