This compact mid townhouse in Talbott Close offers an affordable, low-maintenance home ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. At around 609 sq ft with two bedrooms, the layout is straightforward: entrance hall, lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property is freehold and chain-free, so completion can be straightforward.
Practical features include mains gas central heating to radiators, double glazing (installed post-2002), allocated off-street parking and a small, low-maintenance rear garden. Constructed in the early 1990s and of standard cavity-wall build, the house presents as a modern, tidy townhouse with good mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for homeworking or streaming tenants.
The home is small and best suited to buyers seeking a starter home or an investor wanting a simple rental asset. The local area is comfortable and affluent with nearby shops, eateries and leisure facilities; several nearby secondary schools are rated Good, though one local primary is rated Requires Improvement. Buyers should note the compact room sizes and small plot when considering furniture and outdoor use.
Overall this property sells on location, convenience and low running costs (very cheap council tax). It’s a practical, entry-level purchase that requires minimal immediate maintenance, but offers limited scope for major extension given the plot size. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and potential.
