Chain-free three-bedroom semi with large garden and parking — needs updating, strong potential.
Chain free freehold sale with immediate vacant possession
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Briar Grove is a chain-free freehold with genuine scope for improvement. Set on a generous wraparound garden and tucked in a cul-de-sac, it offers useful outdoor space, off-street parking and easy access to local shops, bus routes and the nearby train station. The layout includes two reception rooms, a separate kitchen and a family bathroom, in a compact 676 sq ft footprint.
The property has practical features already in place: mains gas boiler with radiators, double glazing, and a modern white bathroom suite. The accommodation is best suited to a first-time buyer or small family wanting an affordable entry into WF1, or an investor looking to add value through updating. The EPC D67 reflects average efficiency; cavity walls are as-built and likely uninsulated (assumed), so there is scope to improve energy performance.
Material drawbacks are clear and stated: the house needs renovation and updating throughout, and the area records a very high crime level with local deprivation indicators. Buyers should weigh retrofit costs, potential insulation works and any planned improvements against the purchase price. No flooding risk is recorded and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
Viewing will suit those who value outside space and location convenience and who are comfortable undertaking or financing moderate refurbishment to modernise the property and improve long-term value.
