Summary - 16, Clift Street CA2 7PQ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable urban home ideal for first-time buyers or investors near city amenities.
Victorian mid-terrace close to Cumberland Infirmary
A compact Victorian mid-terrace arranged over three floors plus an attic room, this well-presented home sits a short walk from Cumberland Infirmary and local shops. The layout provides a living room, kitchen/dining, utility and bathroom on the lower floors with two double bedrooms and an additional attic space above. Gas central heating and double glazing are already fitted, reducing immediate maintenance needs.
Room sizes and the small rear courtyard reflect the terrace’s inner-urban character, making the house especially suitable for a first-time buyer or landlord seeking a straightforward city-let close to amenities and transport links. The freehold tenure and unusually large overall floor area (c.1768 sq ft reported, including attic) offer flexibility for a variety of uses and layout tweaks.
Important practical points: the property sits in an area with higher-than-average crime and wider local deprivation, and the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated as originally constructed. On-street permit parking only and a small plot mean external space is limited. Council Tax is low and broadband/mobiles are good, supporting remote working.
This is a sensible entry-level purchase or buy-to-let that balances low running costs and a convenient location against modest external space and the realities of a dense urban neighbourhood. Buyers should view to confirm room sizes and consider any insulation or cosmetic upgrades they may wish to carry out.
