Chain-free three-bedroom mid-terrace offering clear scope for improvement and layout flexibility. The property is freehold and benefits from two reception rooms and a substantial rear garden of approximately 60ft — useful for families or those planning rear extensions (subject to consents).
The house dates from the mid-20th century and requires full modernisation: the kitchen is dated, internal fittings are older, and the building likely has solid uninsulated brick walls. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators; services have not been tested, so buyers should arrange surveys and service checks. The sale is subject to grant of probate, which may affect completion times.
Location is a practical selling point: close to several primary and secondary schools (Good to Outstanding Ofsted ratings) and local transport links, suited to commuters and families. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal average. Note the local crime rate is above average and council tax is higher-than-average — factors to weigh against the affordable asking price and renovation potential.
This home will suit buyers seeking a renovation project to add value, families wanting proximity to schools, or investors prepared to modernise. Expect renovation costs for modern heating, insulation, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, and possible aesthetic repairs to make the property contemporary and efficient.
