A traditional Victorian mid-terrace set in a sought-after part of Nuneaton, offered with no upward chain and clear rental or starter-home potential. The house benefits from a recently replaced roof (2023), double glazing to bay windows and a low-maintenance paved rear yard — practical features that reduce immediate expenditure.
The layout includes a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom alongside two first-floor bedrooms and a second bathroom, making this property flexible for families or investors seeking a multi-let or HMO conversion (subject to permissions). The boiler was last serviced in February 2025 and the home has gas central heating with radiators throughout.
Internal modernisation would unlock value: kitchens and bathrooms are dated, and the interior would benefit from updating and insulation work (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated). EPC current rating D (potential C) reflects scope for energy improvements. Be aware the property sits in a very deprived area with higher-than-average local crime; this influences resale and rental expectations and should factor into budgeting for security and maintenance.
Overall, this freehold terrace is a pragmatic purchase for a first-time buyer wanting immediate occupation with cosmetic improvement, or an investor aiming for a value-add refurbishment in a market with affordable entry prices. The small west-facing yard, nearby good-rated schools and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity are useful local strengths.
