This recently renovated three-bedroom semi-detached house is offered as a 50% shared ownership, designed to help first-time buyers step onto the property ladder with a lower deposit. The interior is presented in modern condition with a bespoke fitted kitchen, light living space and a contemporary family bathroom — ready to move into with minimal immediate works.
Practical features include a garage, off-street driveway and a small, low-maintenance garden that opens from the kitchen, making indoor-outdoor living straightforward. The home is compact at about 691 sq ft, suited to buyers seeking manageable living space rather than a large family house.
Important practical points are the tenure and local context: this is a leasehold property on a shared ownership scheme (50% share), so ongoing service charges or staircasing costs will apply — check the lease for full details. The surrounding area is classified as deprived, and nearby primary schools have mixed Ofsted results; however crime levels are low and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Built around 1996–2002 with double glazing and mains gas central heating, the house is modern in construction and energy systems appear standard. Its compact layout, garage and newly upgraded finishes make it an attractive, affordable option for a first-time buyer wanting a ready-to-live-in home with future equity potential through staircasing.
