This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers spacious, period character across approximately 1,017 sq ft and sits on freehold tenure. The property retains features such as a bay-fronted façade, high ceilings in places and a welcoming vestibule and hallway. The open-plan lounge/dining room floods with natural light and the fitted kitchen provides practical storage and work surfaces for everyday cooking.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom with both bath and step-in shower cubicle. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed though installation date is unknown. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming.
Important considerations: the home sits in a very deprived area with a high recorded crime rate, and the small rear yard and plot limit outside space. The house dates from c.1900–1929 and will benefit from modernisation in places — cosmetic updating and checks to services are advised. Council tax is very low, and the size and layout suit first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential.
