A compact, modern semi‑detached house offering an accessible route onto the property ladder through a shared‑ownership option. The layout provides two main bedrooms (previously reconfigured to three), a light living room, kitchen/diner, conservatory and a small private garden — a practical home for first‑time buyers or young families.
The property is offered either as a 100% freehold purchase or as a 40% shared‑ownership leasehold (subject to Midland Heart approval). The lease has 113 years remaining and there is a below‑average monthly service charge of £336.45. Off‑street parking is available on the driveway.
Important practical points are clear: the home is modest in size (approximately 673 sq ft), with one bathroom and standard ceiling heights throughout. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with hampered neighbourhood characteristics and average local crime; buyers should weigh this against the strong transport, broadband and mobile connectivity and nearby schools, including two outstanding selective secondaries.
This house suits buyers seeking an affordable, low‑maintenance modern property with immediate move‑in potential and potential to personalise. Shared‑ownership makes entry easier, but purchasers must be comfortable with the tenure specifics, service charge and the neighbourhood context.
