This is a distinctive five-bedroom Victorian terraced house arranged over three stories, with generous room proportions and high ceilings that retain original period character. The layout includes a windowed loft room used as a fifth bedroom, offering flexible space for a master suite, home office or guest room. Large, light-filled reception rooms and classic detailing make the house well suited to family living.
Practical and rare for the location, the property has a private rear yard with off-street parking for two cars and a small front yard. Local amenities, bus links and several Good-rated primary schools are within easy reach, making daily life straightforward for commuters and families.
Buyers should note there is a single bathroom serving five bedrooms, and the exterior requires maintenance; the house is described as a fixer-upper in places. The surrounding neighbourhood is mixed — wider area classifications indicate blue-collar terraces and local social renting pressures — so prospective purchasers should consider rental or resale markets carefully.
Overall this home offers substantial space and period character with clear potential for modernisation. It will suit families seeking room and flexibility, or investors wanting a sizeable terraced property with parking and strong transport links. Early inspection is recommended to assess renovation scope and layout potential.
