This chain-free, two-bedroom semi-detached house on Doles Crescent offers an affordable first step on the property ladder. Accommodation is compact (circa 313 sqft) but arranged over two storeys with a front lounge, kitchen-diner, conservatory and two bedrooms. The fitted kitchen, tiled bathroom and UPVC windows give a modern, move-in-ready feel.
Practical positives include a paved driveway for off-street parking, a low-maintenance rear garden with shed, freehold tenure and excellent mobile and fast broadband—useful for working from home or streaming. The larger principal bedroom was formed from two rooms originally, giving flexibility to reinstate separate bedrooms if needed.
Buyers should note the property sits in a very deprived local area with above-average crime statistics; schools nearby are a mix of ratings. The internal footprint is small, so space is limited and may suit a single person, couple, downsizer or first-time buyer rather than a growing family. No flood risk is reported.
Overall this is a compact, low-upkeep home with modern fixtures and immediate availability. It’s a practical, budget-conscious purchase for someone prioritising affordability, parking and good digital connectivity, but be realistic about the modest room sizes and local area challenges.
