This compact mid-terrace stone property offers a straightforward, affordable route into Idle village life. With two bedrooms, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing it suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry purchase with immediate rental potential.
The layout is traditional and practical: entrance, lounge, fitted kitchen, first-floor bathroom and two bedrooms. The larger front bedroom provides flexible living space while the small rear yard and forecourt garden give modest outdoor options. Total floor area is around 788 sq ft — typical for an average-sized Victorian terrace.
The house is sold with vacant possession and requires standard modernisation throughout. Cosmetic updating of kitchen, bathroom and finishes is likely, and walls are stone-built with presumed lack of insulation. Above-average local crime is a factual consideration for buyers; however council tax band is very low and local schools include several rated Good.
Location is a key strength: close to Idle village amenities, strong mobile signal and fast broadband, making it practical for commuting or letting. For buyers wanting value and scope to add personal or rental-grade improvements, this property provides a clear, affordable canvas.
