This compact Victorian mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into homeownership or a straightforward rental opportunity. The layout is practical: a through lounge/dining room and a ground-floor shower room with two double bedrooms upstairs. At about 722 sq ft the property is average-sized but feels efficient for a starter home.
The house retains period character externally and benefits from good digital connectivity — fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — plus on-street parking and very low council tax running costs. Nearby transport links and local amenities make commuting and daily errands convenient.
Internally the decor is dated and will suit buyers willing to update; the living room shows mid-century finishes and there is scope to modernise kitchen and bathroom fittings. Material considerations: the home is leasehold, sits in a neighbourhood with high crime and significant area deprivation, and will appeal most to purchasers prepared to invest time and money to improve the property.
Nearby schools include a mix of Ofsted outcomes (Outstanding to Requires Improvement), which may influence families. For first-time buyers this is a budget-friendly chance to step onto the ladder; for investors it offers rental potential after refurbishment.
