Summary - 10, JOHN STREET, LEEK ST13 8BL
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Large-period home with garage and strong renovation potential for investors.
Large internal area around 1,827 sq ft, generous room proportions
Integral garage — rare for town-centre terraces, useful storage/workshop
Converted loft offers potential for a fourth bedroom (subject to works)
Requires full modernisation throughout; budget for upgrades and repairs
Cavity walls likely uninsulated; consider thermal and glazing improvements
Small rear plot with two brick stores and outside WC, limited garden
Located close to Leek town centre amenities and good broadband/mobile
High local crime and area deprivation; factor into investment strategy
A large Victorian end-of-terrace in the heart of Leek, offered chain-free and ready for a full modernisation programme. The property occupies a corner position with an integral garage — an uncommon and valuable feature for town-centre terraces — plus a cellar, private rear yard and two brick stores. Accommodation includes three double bedrooms and a converted loft room suitable for further adaptation into a fourth bedroom subject to approvals.
This is a clear refurbishment opportunity aimed at buyers who can invest in updating finishes and services. The house has double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls that likely lack insulation, so buyers should budget for thermal upgrades and full interior modernisation. Services are mains gas with boiler and radiators; the property is freehold and council tax is low (Band B).
Location is convenient for Leek’s shops, markets and local amenities, and the building’s generous internal area (about 1,827 sq ft) gives scope for reconfiguration or rental conversion. Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and a large integral garage that could be converted or used for storage/workshop. Notable negatives: the area records high crime and local deprivation levels, the plot is small, and the property requires renovation throughout — prospective buyers should allow for works and possible inspection of walls and services.
