Large garden, garage and period charm with scope to modernise..
Victorian stone-faced end-terrace with period bay window
A solid Victorian stone-built terrace with genuine outdoor space, this two-bedroom home suits families or buyers seeking period character with room to improve. The property’s standout is a very large rear garden with greenhouse, patio and open outlook — rare for terraced homes and ideal for children, pets or ambitious landscaping projects. Off-street parking and a rear garage add practical value in a town-centre location.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: an open-plan lounge/diner with a bay window, two first-floor bedrooms with built-in storage, and a bathroom with a combi boiler. The kitchen retains its original 1970s pine units and dated tiling; it is functional but clearly in need of modernization to meet contemporary expectations. UPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating are in place.
Important negatives are factual: the local area is classified as deprived with a higher local crime rate, which may affect some buyers’ preferences. External stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated and the house was built before 1900, so buyers should budget for potential fabric and insulation upgrades. Overall costs are tempered by a low council tax band and fast broadband and mobile signal, making the house practical for modern working and family life.
This property will appeal to buyers who prioritise outdoor space, period charm and parking, and who are prepared to invest in kitchen and energy-efficiency improvements. It offers clear scope to add value through sympathetic updating while enjoying an established neighbourhood with good primary schools nearby.
