This three-bedroom semi-detached house on King Street offers a practical, affordable entry into the local market. The layout includes a generous through reception with French doors to the rear garden, a functional kitchen and useful understairs storage — a straightforward canvas for modernisation. The property benefits from off-street parking for two cars, double glazing and mains gas central heating, making it ready for improvement rather than full reconstruction.
The accommodation includes two double bedrooms and a smaller third room that works well as a nursery, home office or single bedroom. Room proportions are typical of 1930s suburban homes, with bay-window character to the front and a compact but workable first-floor bathroom. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong here, which will suit home workers, students or renters who value connectivity.
Notable positives are the freehold tenure, low council tax band and a rear garden for outdoor use. However, the house needs renovation and cosmetic updating throughout; cavity walls are uninsulated (as built) and some general maintenance will be required. The area is classified as deprived with above-average crime levels, which should be considered by buyers assessing long-term suitability.
For first-time buyers seeking a manageable project or investors aiming for buy-to-let potential, this property’s size, parking and proximity to local amenities, schools, hospital and university create practical appeal. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the layout and renovation potential in person.
