This two-bedroom, double-fronted end terrace on Thomas Street is offered as an investment with an established long-term tenant. The compact 549 sq ft layout includes two reception rooms, a galley kitchen and a ground-floor bathroom, plus a small enclosed rear yard. Mains gas boiler and radiators supply heating; windows are double glazed (install date unknown).
The property is conventional Victorian terrace construction (circa 1900–1929) with solid brick walls and no known cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements. Interior fittings and finishes are dated — carpets, lino and mid-20th-century decor are all present — making this a straightforward refurbishment or rental-maintenance proposition rather than a turnkey buy.
Location strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to local amenities, leisure facilities and schools. The area is classed as very deprived and populated by social renters, which supports steady rental demand but also limits headline rental growth and resale premium. Council tax is very low, and flood risk is negligible.
For an investor seeking predictable income and scope to add value through basic upgrades (insulation, kitchen/bathroom modernisation, decorative refresh), this represents an affordable entry point at the listed price. Note that the property is occupied by a long-standing tenant; viewings or vacant possession will depend on tenancy arrangements.
