Summary - 5 Percy Road NN1 4LS
2 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Spacious two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace with garden and no upper chain, ideal for first-time buyers..
End-terrace Victorian bay-front property, 965 sq ft
A bay-fronted, two-bedroom end-terrace in Abington offering 965 sq ft of traditional living across two floors plus a cellar. The ground floor has separate sitting and dining rooms, a kitchen with adjoining utility and cloakroom, while two double bedrooms and a shower room sit upstairs. Double glazing and gas central heating are already in place and the property is offered with no upper chain.
Highlights include a walled rear garden with gated side access, on-street parking on a quiet no-through road, and quick access to local shops, cafés and good schools including an Outstanding secondary. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical for home working or streaming.
The house dates from the early 20th century and retains period character, but it is best described as a practical renovation project rather than a move-in-perfect home. The walls are solid brick with no built-in insulation (assumed) and the EPC is rated E, so improving insulation and modernising services would both increase comfort and value. The cellar provides useful storage but may need attention.
Location strengths — proximity to transport, amenities and well-regarded schools — suit first-time buyers or couples seeking a project in a central, changing area. Note the area records above-average crime statistics; buyers should consider security and exterior maintenance when planning works.
