Internally the layout is practical: a bright reception room, a contemporary kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom, all within an average-sized 638 sq ft footprint.
Outdoor space is modest but useful: a small private garden and a dedicated garden office provide a distinct work-from-home advantage. The house benefits from double glazing (fitted since 2002), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and fast broadband — useful for remote working or studying. Local schools rated Good and Outstanding are within reach, adding family appeal.
Buyers should note clear, factual drawbacks: the plot is small, some finishes (an older oven and carpets) look dated and may need upgrading, and the area records above-average crime and high local deprivation. The property dates from the 1930–49 period, so prospective purchasers should consider survey checks for age-related maintenance.
Overall this home offers an affordable entry to the market with practical living space, good connectivity and a ready-made garden workspace. It suits first-time buyers or those looking to downsize who prioritise location, connectivity and a quick purchase process.
