This two-bedroom Edwardian terrace on Argyle Road offers an accessible entry into London ownership. The house keeps period character—sash windows and fireplaces—alongside practical upgrades such as double glazing, central heating and a fitted kitchen. With 761 sq ft of living space and a rear garden, it will suit a first-time buyer seeking a manageable home with potential to personalise.
The layout is traditional: a welcoming living room, kitchen and bathroom on the first floor, plus two bedrooms and loft storage. The property is chain free and freehold, making completion straightforward for buyers ready to move quickly. Nearby schools rated Good, local parks and transport links give everyday convenience and reasonable commuting options into central London.
Be clear about the material issues: the terrace was built 1900–1929 and likely has solid brick walls with no cavity insulation, so energy efficiency and running costs could be higher than modern homes. The local area is very deprived and recorded above-average crime; medium flood risk should be checked with insurers. The plot is small and the garden modest, limiting extension options without planning checks.
For first-time buyers this home represents value and scope to add equity through targeted improvements (insulation, energy upgrades, cosmetic modernisation). It’s best suited to someone who wants a characterful starter home in a busy urban area and is prepared to invest modestly to improve comfort and running costs.
