This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Grierson Avenue offers a practical, move-in-ready layout across two storeys. A generous living room with a feature fireplace and French doors opens to a private, enclosed garden with patio, decking and a garage — useful for families or buyers needing outdoor space and storage. The fitted kitchen plus utility/lean-to add everyday convenience, and double glazing and gas central heating provide basic comfort.
The property presents clear potential for first-time buyers or investors seeking an affordable entry into the NG5 market, with an asking guide of £210,000–£220,000 and low council tax (Band A). Off-street parking and a driveway are helpful extras, and broadband and mobile connectivity are strong.
There are important material factors to note. Solar panels are leased, not owned, which may carry ongoing payments and conditions. The local area records very high crime levels and significant deprivation; buyers should factor neighbourhood safety and resale considerations into their plans. The cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), so energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. Restrictive covenants apply to the site.
Overall, this is a pragmatic, well-located starter home with solid room sizes and outdoor space. It will suit buyers willing to accept the local social challenges or investors seeking rental demand in an affordable area, and those prepared to upgrade insulation or other elements over time.
