This spacious Victorian end-terrace offers flexible family living across three levels, with three reception rooms and potential annexe space on the garden level. The house is presented in good order with double glazing, gas central heating and FTTP broadband — practical features for everyday family life or a rental investment.
Rooms are well-proportioned for the property’s 1,141 sq ft: a bay-front lounge and separate dining room with a composite decked terrace provide light and outlook, while a lower-ground reception and cellar add useful utility and storage. The rear garden is sunny with patio and lawn; the front is low-maintenance artificial lawn with gated access.
There is scope for further value: the lower-ground level has previously been used as habitable rooms and could form an annexe or self-contained area, subject to any required approvals. Buyers should note the footnote that lower-ground works do not imply formal building approval; a surveyor or planning check is recommended.
Practical drawbacks to factor in are the small plot, on-street parking only, and the property’s age with traditional granite walls (likely uninsulated). The area has pockets of deprivation, so buyers seeking long-term capital appreciation should weigh location factors alongside the house’s flexible accommodation and good transport and school access.
