This immaculate, newly renovated two-bedroom semi-detached home on Hey Lane is a strong choice for a first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in property. The house has been updated throughout with a modern dining kitchen and bathroom, double bedrooms and well-proportioned living space, set on a decent, wraparound plot with private garden areas. Available with no onward chain, it offers immediate occupation and low initial maintenance.
Practical aspects suit everyday living: gas central heating, double glazing, and a useful entrance porch and pantry-style storage in the kitchen. The plot provides outdoor seating and a wooden shed for garden storage. On-street parking is freely available immediately outside, and local primary and secondary schools rated Good are within walking distance.
Be aware of local context: the area records high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may concern some buyers or affect longer-term resale values. The property is small overall (approximately 480 sq ft) so families needing more space should note room sizes. While newly renovated, some features (double glazing install date unknown; standard ceiling heights) and dated external features typical of a 1930s build may invite future updates.
Overall, this tidy, chain-free semi offers a realistic, low-effort entry onto the housing ladder for buyers prioritising move-in readiness, garden space and proximity to schools and town centre amenities, provided they accept the locality’s wider social and safety challenges.
