This two-bedroom end-of-terrace on Deepdale Road offers a straightforward, affordable route onto the property ladder. Built c.1900–1929, the house retains period character—bay window, high ceilings and cornices—while providing practical space: a bay-front living room, separate dining room, compact fitted kitchen and a boarded loft for storage. The enclosed rear lawn and shed add family-friendly outdoor space.
The property is freehold, gas centrally heated with double glazing, and sits in a well-connected location with good bus links, nearby schools and local amenities. Council tax is very low and there is no flood risk, which helps running costs and peace of mind for a first-time buyer.
Buyers should note the wider area scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is high; the immediate neighbourhood classification suggests social renting and hampered neighbourhood challenges. The solid-brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the age of the glazing is unknown, so energy efficiency may be limited. Prospective purchasers are advised to commission survey and service checks for heating, electrics and insulation before purchase.
For a buyer seeking a practical starter home with period charm and a decent rear garden, this property provides good scope. With targeted improvements—insulation, possible window upgrades and cosmetic refresh—it can become a comfortable long-term home or a straightforward rental investment in a market with affordable entry prices.
