Well-presented 1930s semi with garden, garage and off-street parking—ideal for first-time buyers.
Two bedrooms, one four-piece bathroom, approx. 721 sq ft
This two-bedroom semi-detached home on Birchwood Lane offers a practical, well-presented layout across two storeys with a decent rear garden and off-street parking. The property sits on a modest 721 sq ft footprint and retains period charm including a front bay window and feature fireplace, while benefiting from a modern kitchen and a four-piece bathroom.
Built between 1930–1949, the house is solid brick construction with double glazing installed before 2002 and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Practical positives include freehold tenure, a garage, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and no flood risk — useful for commuters and families needing reliable connectivity and transport links.
Buyers should note some fabric and energy considerations: walls are assumed to be solid brick with no cavity insulation, and the glazing is older double glazing, so investment in insulation or replacement windows could improve comfort and running costs. The local area has above-average crime figures and a higher proportion of social renters, which may influence buyer preferences.
This home will suit first-time buyers or families seeking an affordable, liveable house to personalise. It’s close to several primary and secondary schools (most rated Good), local amenities and reasonable commuting routes to nearby centres, offering a straightforward project with upside from targeted improvements.
