Ready-for-first-time buyers or investors with no onward chain.
Garden-fronted mid-terrace with private rear garden and patio
This neat mid-terrace offers an accessible entry into homeownership with two bedrooms, a contemporary fitted kitchen and a private rear garden backing onto open grassland. The layout is traditional and straightforward: porch, living room with fireplace, kitchen opening to the patio, two first-floor bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom with shower screen. At about 698 sq ft the rooms are average-sized and the home suits those seeking a manageable, low-maintenance first property or a buy-to-let opportunity.
Practical features include gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a brick garden store. The rear garden has a patio, lawn and a gate leading directly onto open land — handy for dog owners or outdoor access — and the property is offered with no onward chain for a quicker purchase.
Buyers should note the house was built circa 1930–1949 and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so improving wall insulation could be a worthwhile upgrade. The wider area is classified as deprived and local secondary provision has mixed Ofsted outcomes; this may influence future buyer demand. Council tax is low and broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting working-from-home and connectivity needs.
Overall this is a realistic, well-presented starter home with clear improvement potential. It will appeal most to first-time buyers and investors who value immediate move-in and a straightforward renovation roadmap rather than a turnkey premium property.
