Two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with attic dormer
A compact two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering a practical starter home or buy-to-let in South Kirkby. The property is freehold, gas‑heated with double glazing and an EPC rating of D, and includes a useful attic room with dormer for flexible use.
The house benefits from an enclosed front garden, small rear parking space off the lane, and quick access to local shops, takeaways and good transport links including nearby train stations and the A1. Council tax band A and a modest footprint make running costs low.
Buyers should note the wider area shows higher crime and relative deprivation; the street is in a transitional neighbourhood. The solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation and rooms are narrow, so there is scope — and cost — for energy and comfort improvements. The attic dormer has limited head height and may suit occasional use or storage rather than full-time living without alterations.
Overall this is a value-led purchase for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to accept compact rooms and carry straightforward upgrading work. The location, low council tax and transport links are strong practical advantages for commuter or rental markets.
