Set on a popular South Lancaster street, this two-bedroom Victorian terrace offers a straightforward, affordable route into the market or a ready-made buy-to-let. The house has been a reliable rental with good letting history and is offered chain-free on a freehold title—appealing to investors and first-time buyers seeking a city-centre location within walking distance of shops, universities and transport links.
Internally the layout is traditional with a lounge, kitchen, small utility area, ground-floor bathroom and two double bedrooms upstairs. Rooms are compact but practical within the circa 499 sq ft footprint, and the property benefits from standard ceiling heights, built-in storage and a small yard with gate and shed. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and the neighbourhood records very low crime rates.
The property requires some modernisation throughout; cosmetic updating and kitchen/bathroom refreshes are needed to realise its full value. The plot is very small and room sizes are modest, so this is best suited to buyers who value location and rental potential over generous living space. For investors, ongoing rental demand in this student-and-professional area suggests continued income prospects once refurbished.
Overall this is a compact, characterful terraced house with clear upside for refurbishment and rental reuse. Buyers should factor in renovation costs and limited outdoor space, but those prepared to update the interior will find a well-located, affordable property with clear access to local amenities and schools.
