A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering practical living space and clear value for buyers seeking an affordable starter home or rental. The house has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a modern galley kitchen, arranged over an average-sized 743 sq ft footprint. A private rear yard and bay-windowed façade add period character and outdoor space.
Important practical points are straightforward: heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating, and glazing is double but install date is unknown. The property is leasehold with a very long lease remaining (874 years) and a nominal ground rent of £8. Council tax is very cheap and there is no flooding risk.
Location gives easy access to local shops, bus links and community facilities, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuting or letting. However, the area is very deprived with a very high crime rate; this is a material consideration for residents or investors and will affect desirability and lettings.
Overall, the house suits a first-time buyer comfortable with electrics-based heating or an investor looking for a low-entry purchase in a major conurbation. Some cosmetic updating or heating improvements would add comfort and market appeal, but the long lease and low running costs make the property a practical, low-cost opportunity.
