The living room has characterful exposed beams and a fireplace, and there’s a separate kitchen with direct access to a private courtyard.

The mid-20th-century façade and traditional interiors provide period character while the layout remains straightforward and easy to personalise.
Buyers should note the property sits on a very small plot and the external walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, so thermal upgrades may be desirable to improve comfort and running costs. Internal space is compact and ceiling heights are low to standard, so this home is best suited to individuals or couples rather than families needing generous room sizes.
