This well-presented two-bedroom semi offers a straightforward, modern home ideal for first-time buyers or young families. Built in 2017, the property benefits from contemporary fixtures, an efficient boiler and radiators heating system, and an EPC rating of B — helping to keep running costs down. The layout is practical: a fitted kitchen, large reception room with French doors to the rear garden, downstairs WC and a three-piece family bathroom upstairs.
Practical outside space includes a paved patio, low-maintenance artificial turf and decking, plus a private double driveway providing off-street parking. The long lease (around 241 years remaining) and reported peppercorn rent suggest ownership costs are predictable, while very low council tax (Band A) further reduces ongoing expenditure. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for remote working or streaming.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area is recorded as very deprived with a very high local crime rate. Those concerns may affect resale values and personal security perceptions; prospective purchasers are recommended to carry out local checks and consider security measures. The property is leasehold — buyers must confirm exact rent and terms with their solicitor before committing.
Internally the home is an average-sized 661 sq ft with two double bedrooms and a generous reception room, offering comfortable accommodation to start family life or to occupy while improving value over time. Overall, this is a low-maintenance, energy-efficient starter home in need of little immediate work, but located in a challenging neighbourhood where buyer caution and local due diligence are advised.
