A compact three-bedroom mid-terrace in the heart of Middlesbrough town centre, offered chain-free and sold freehold. The house retains Victorian character externally while offering a modern fitted kitchen and ground-floor bathroom, gas central heating and double glazing. Two reception rooms include a front bay room that could be adapted to a fourth bedroom with the right permissions, giving flexibility for families or buyers needing extra space.
The property sits on a small plot with a private enclosed rear yard rather than a garden. Internal floorspace is modest (approximately 732 sq ft), so it suits a small family, first-time buyer or investor looking for a low-entry town-centre asset. Council tax is very low (Band A), and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the area is in a very deprived ward with higher-than-average crime levels, and from July 2023 the property falls within a selective licensing zone — additional licence costs and compliance requirements may apply. The house is compact and will benefit from cosmetic updating and potential reconfiguration to maximise space.
Overall this is a budget-friendly, chain-free Victorian terrace in a central location that offers clear short-term usability and straightforward renovation potential, provided purchasers accept the neighbourhood challenges and licensing obligations.
