This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a straightforward, low-maintenance starter home or rental near the coast. Built 2007–2011, the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an open-plan living space with integrated kitchen appliances and French doors to a small enclosed rear garden.
Practical features include off-street parking, a driveway, cloakroom, and a modest west-facing paved garden with artificial lawn — easy to manage for first-time buyers or landlords. The EPC rating of C and mains gas heating point to reasonable running costs, and broadband and mobile signals are strong for working-from-home needs.
The house is sold chain-free and sits on a small plot in a city/major town location close to the beach and local amenities such as shops, leisure facilities and a playground. The area has low crime rates and accessible transport links, but the wider neighbourhood faces economic pressure and higher deprivation indicators.
Internally the layout is efficient: an open-plan lounge/kitchen downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. The property is compact (approx. 573 sq ft) so it will suit buyers prioritising location, low upkeep and seaside access over expansive living space. Investors should note the modest room sizes and small plot when assessing rental yield potential.
