This modest mid-terrace two-bedroom house on Abercorn Street offers an affordable entry into homeownership or a straightforward rental investment. The living room is neatly presented and the kitchen and utility room have modern fittings and integrated appliances — practical spaces for everyday living. A private rear yard provides outdoor space despite the very small plot.
Key running-cost strengths include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown) and very low council tax (Band A). Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal is excellent, which supports working from home or tenant demand. The property is freehold and has no flood risk.
Important negatives to note: the wider area is classified as very deprived with predominantly blue-collar terraces, and local-area indicators point to endeavouring social renters, which may affect long-term capital growth and rental tone. The external walls are cavity as built with no added insulation (assumed), so energy efficiency may be poor and further insulation works could be required. The plot and overall living space are small (360 sq ft), and the property dates from c.1930–1949, so some systems or finishes may need future updating.
Overall this is a compact, low-cost home suitable for a first-time buyer wanting a manageable step on the ladder or an investor seeking a lettable terrace in a convenient town location. Viewings will show how the tidy interior and modern kitchen could be used immediately, while buyers should budget for insulation and long-term maintenance works.
