Victorian mid-terrace with three bedrooms
A Victorian mid-terrace with three bedrooms and solid brick construction, this 948 sq ft freehold home sits on a small plot in L4. The house benefits from double glazing installed post-2002, a modernised kitchen with integrated appliances and a private patio for outdoor use. The living room retains period features including a bay window and fireplace, while rooms are generally medium-to-small in size.
Practical running costs are supported by mains gas central heating (boiler and radiators). The property currently carries an EPC D and Council Tax Band A. The walls are original solid brick and likely lack cavity insulation, which should be considered when budgeting for longer-term energy improvements.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, nearby bus links and local amenities. Several primary schools nearby have Good or Outstanding Ofsted ratings, but the wider area is classified as very deprived with high local crime levels. This house suits buyers who prioritise value, commute links and refurbishment potential rather than a quiet, low-crime suburb.
For first-time buyers or investors, the price point and freehold tenure offer accessible ownership or lettable potential, but budget for energy upgrades, modest maintenance and security measures given local conditions. Viewings are recommended to assess space, condition and improvement scope in person.
