This Victorian mid-terrace offers two double bedrooms and nearly 947 sq ft of space in central Gloucester, ideal for a first purchase or buy-to-let. The property keeps period character with brickwork and ornate chimneys while providing essential modern comforts like gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown).
Location is a clear strength: immediate access to shops, buses and amenities, short walks to Kingsholm Primary, Denmark Road High School and Gloucester Royal Hospital. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support working professionals or students who need reliable connectivity.
The house is a practical investment but requires realistic expectations. The solid brick walls likely lack insulation and there is scope for updating the kitchen, bathroom and general decoration. The rear garden is small and street parking is by permit only. The local area is classified as very deprived and crime levels are very high; these factors will influence rental demand, insurance costs and purchaser suitability.
For buyers seeking a central, character property with uplift potential, this freehold terrace presents clear scope for refurbishment to increase value or rental income. For those prioritising low-crime, suburban living, the location and neighbourhood profile may be unsuitable.
