An affordable two-bedroom semi-detached home in DY5 offering practical living space and off-street parking. The house dates from the late 1990s–early 2000s, with double glazing and gas central heating, so major envelope upgrades appear unnecessary. A conservatory and patio doors bring light to the rear, and a small private garden provides low-maintenance outdoor space.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a compact, manageable starter home close to local schools, bus routes and everyday amenities. Interiors are modern in style with laminate and tiled floors and a recently fitted bathroom; decoration is neutral and the layout is straightforward, keeping refurbishment costs modest. The small plot and average footprint make it economical to run and easy to maintain.
Buyers should note important local-context issues: the immediate area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived. The plot is small and rooms are modest in size, so it will not suit those needing extensive outdoor space or larger family accommodation. Prospective purchasers are advised to check any safety, security and insurance implications arising from the local crime data before committing.
Overall this is a practical, low-cost entry property with sensible running costs and scope to personalise. It offers quick access to schools and transport, but buyers should weigh the convenience and price against the local social and safety challenges.
