Well-located two-bed with modern kitchen and low-maintenance garden.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace, ideal first home or buy-to-let
This compact Victorian mid-terrace on Loxley View Road is aimed squarely at first-time buyers seeking an affordable, well-located starter home. The ground floor features a remodelled contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances and a cosy front lounge with a woodburning stove. Two bedrooms and a bathroom sit on the first floor, with fold-down loft access providing extra storage. The property is freehold with very cheap council tax (Band A).
Outside is a low-maintenance rear garden with paved and gravel seating plus a useful outhouse — ideal for a dryer, freezer or bike storage. Bolehills Park sits at the end of the road and Crookes’ cafés, pubs and shops are an easy walk, making the location excellent for everyday errands and social life. Commuting into the city centre is straightforward from this part of S10.
Be clear that the home is modest in size: total floor area is around 538 sq ft and rooms are relatively small compared with modern new-builds. The terrace is original solid brick (assumed uninsulated), so buyers should consider potential wall insulation costs if improving thermal efficiency. There is one bathroom and on-street parking only. For purchasers wanting a low-upkeep, well-positioned first home or a straightforward buy-to-let, this offers good value with immediate move-in readiness and scope to add value through sympathetic upgrades.
