Compact starter property with modern kitchen, driveway and very low council tax.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached, approx. 644 sq ft
This freehold two-bedroom semi offers a compact, practical layout and recently updated kitchen ideal for a first purchase or buy-to-let. The living room is open to the modern kitchen, and the property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and off-street parking on the driveway. Council tax is very cheap and broadband and mobile connectivity are strong.
The house sits on a small plot with a modest rear garden and average internal space (approximately 644 sq ft). The exterior and some internal features are mid-20th century and show dated elements that will benefit from cosmetic updating; the property suits buyers prepared to personalise or carry out light refurbishment.
Location strengths include a range of nearby primary and secondary schools (several rated Good or Outstanding) and local amenities within walking distance. Practical positives — modern kitchen, driveway, and no flood risk — combine with affordable running costs to make this a pragmatic starter home.
Buyers should note the area has high crime levels and is classified as very deprived; this affects long-term resale and rental outlook. The house is best for purchasers seeking an affordable, manageable home who accept the need for minor improvements and are comfortable with the wider neighbourhood context.
