A compact Victorian mid-terrace offered chain-free and suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a manageable starter home. The sitting room leads to a stylish refitted kitchen and an enclosed rear courtyard — low-maintenance outdoor space with a small shed. Gas central heating and double glazing provide everyday comfort.
The home is modest in scale (approximately 511 sq ft) and has been improved over the last 24 years, but it retains period character and some traditional features. The property is freehold and close to local amenities in Leiston, with good access to the coast, shops, schools and bus links; Saxmundham station is a short drive for wider rail connections.
There are important layout and condition considerations: the second bedroom is only accessed through the bathroom, which limits privacy and could affect rental appeal or family use. The house is built with solid brick walls and likely lacks cavity insulation; some exterior and garden maintenance is needed and there are signs this property would benefit from further updating. EPC rating D and local crime levels are above average, both worth noting when assessing suitability.
Overall, this is a budget-friendly entry-level terrace with straightforward improvement potential for someone prepared to accept its compact layout and carry out modest works. Early inspection is recommended to judge how the plan of rooms and maintenance needs fit your requirements.
