This two-bedroom Victorian terraced house, built in 1863 for railway workers, offers character and practical modern updates across 691 sq ft. The current owner has upgraded interiors and added secondary glazing, creating a comfortable, energy-efficient feel while retaining period features and a brick facade.
On the ground floor an entrance lobby leads into a living room that flows into an open-plan dining area and fitted kitchen. A bright sunroom to the rear provides a sunny spot for morning coffee and overlooks the small rear garden and nearby countryside. The first floor has two double bedrooms and a convenient wet-room style shower room.
The property is freehold with low council tax, very low local crime and fast broadband—appealing for homeowners who need reliable internet and low running costs. The location sits on the town fringe, close to walking trails and countryside views, while nearby primary and secondary schools have generally good Ofsted ratings.
Considerations: the plot is very small and garden access requires passing through the neighbouring garden for bin emptying, which may affect usability. As a Victorian house there may be ongoing maintenance typical of period homes, despite recent updates. Overall this home suits first-time buyers or those seeking a characterful, well-connected base in a quiet, affluent area.
