This recently renovated two-bedroom Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage blends period character with contemporary comfort. The house is compact (approximately 506 sq ft) and presented move-in ready with new carpets, modern kitchen and bathroom, a new boiler and partial electrical rewire. The cellar has been professionally tanked, providing useful storage or potential laundry/utility space.
Location is a strong practical selling point: excellent transport links, several well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, fast broadband and reliable mobile signal. The property is offered chain-free and vendors are in the process of purchasing the freehold — buyers should note that freehold transfer is not yet completed.
Important constraints are factual: the home is Grade II listed, which will impose restrictions on alterations and may complicate permission for changes. Tenure is currently recorded as unknown and the walls are likely uninsulated (stone construction), so buyers should budget for any desired thermal upgrades. The area has high crime statistics and is classified as very deprived; prospective buyers should weigh local social factors alongside the low asking price and cheap council tax.
Overall, this is a compact, characterful starter home or small household opportunity: a newly refreshed, low-maintenance interior with cosmetic and insulation limitations and formal listing constraints. It suits buyers seeking period charm and convenience who are comfortable with listing controls and an urban location with associated social challenges.
