3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Hillburn Road, Wisbech PE13

If space matters, this is the kind of home you need to see!

Offering the generous room proportions that are so often associated with older properties, this substantial three-bedroom home provides three excellent double bedrooms, two large reception rooms, a conservatory, en-suite facilities, integral garage, parking for up to three vehicles and a generous established rear garden – all within a convenient location where everyday amenities are within walking distance.

For buyers comparing this home with newer properties at a similar price point, the difference in space could be a real eye-opener. Here you have proper-sized rooms, large double bedrooms, plenty of room for substantial furniture and a garden offering genuine outdoor space. If you are tired of looking at homes where everything feels just that little bit too compact, this one deserves your attention.

Step inside and the entrance hall immediately gives a sense of the accommodation available, with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the lounge, dining room, kitchen and integral garage.

The lounge is a particularly generous reception room, easily capable of accommodating larger modern sofas and furniture without feeling crowded. There is plenty of wall space for the all-important cinema-sized television, while a feature fire surround with fitted electric fire provides a focal point. Large sliding patio doors open into the conservatory, allowing plenty of natural light into the room.

The conservatory, of brick and uPVC construction, provides another useful and versatile living space. Currently arranged as a home office, it could equally work as a sitting room, playroom or simply somewhere to relax overlooking the garden. Fitted vertical blinds are included and a door provides direct access outside.

There is also a separate dining room, and once again the proportions are impressive. There is ample space for a large dining table and chairs together with additional furniture, making this a proper dining room rather than somewhere you need to squeeze a table into. A uPVC window overlooks the rear garden.

The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of grey units, complemented by work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. Appliances include a built-in oven, ceramic hob and cooker hood, with a one-and-a-half bowl sink and mixer tap positioned alongside a uPVC window to the side. An additional bonus is the large walk-in pantry, providing excellent everyday storage.

Upstairs is where the space continues to impress.

There are three genuinely good-sized double bedrooms – something that can be increasingly difficult to find, particularly when comparing properties at a similar price.

Bedroom one is a good-sized double overlooking the rear and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, fitted with a shower cubicle, WC and compact hand basin set within a vanity storage unit.

Bedroom two is another particularly spacious double room overlooking the rear, while bedroom three is yet another large double, this time positioned to the front. Whether you need bedrooms for a growing family, guest accommodation or a combination of bedrooms and working-from-home space, there is plenty of flexibility here.

Completing the first floor is the spacious family bathroom, fitted with a p-shaped bath with shower over, pedestal hand basin and close-coupled WC, together with tiled splashbacks, heated towel rail and a uPVC window to the front.

And the space isn't limited to the inside.

The front has been laid to concrete for ease of maintenance while providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles, with gated access leading along the side of the property and into the rear garden.

The generous, fully enclosed rear garden is another major feature of the home. A sunken lawn creates an attractive centrepiece, surrounded by decorative borders planted with a variety of shrubs, flowers and established trees. A paved patio immediately outside the conservatory provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while steps lead to a further paved area incorporating a timber shed, summer house and pagoda.

The result is a garden with different areas to sit, entertain, potter or simply enjoy – and importantly, enough space to actually use.

Add to all of this the convenient location, with everyday amenities within walking distance, and this is a home that offers considerably more than first appearances might suggest.

For anyone currently comparing older homes with newer properties at a similar price, we'd strongly recommend viewing this one before making a decision. Three large double bedrooms, generous reception rooms, conservatory, en-suite, integral garage, excellent parking and a substantial garden combine to offer the kind of space that can be very difficult to replicate in many modern developments.

If you're looking for more room for your money – both inside and out – this could be exactly what you've been waiting for.
