This neatly presented mid-terraced home offers unusually generous internal proportions for its footprint, with two double bedrooms and a spacious dining kitchen — ideal for first-time buyers seeking move-in readiness. Practical features include solar panels for hot water, double glazing, gas central heating and allocated off-street parking for two cars at the front.
Set in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property has a low-maintenance rear garden with patio, lawn and gravelled areas. The upgraded family bathroom includes a panel bath with shower over and tiled walls, while a convenient downstairs WC adds everyday practicality. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note the location is in a very deprived neighbourhood with higher-than-average local crime; suitability for families or lone occupants will depend on personal tolerance and priorities. There is an annual management/service charge of £329.16. The plot is small and the house is average in overall size (approximately 786 sq ft), so outdoor space and extension potential are limited.
This freehold, modern-built (2007–2011) home has clear strengths for a purchaser wanting a ready-to-live-in property with low running hassle and small running costs (cheap council tax, EPC C). For buyers planning longer-term investment or major enlargement, budget and local area factors should be considered.
