This two-bedroom end-of-terrace offers an affordable, move-in-ready starter home in a well-connected part of Runcorn. At approximately 617 sq ft it provides straightforward living with a lounge, kitchen/diner, bathroom and two bedrooms — a practical layout for first-time buyers or investors seeking a lettable property.
The house retains period character from its circa 1900–1929 construction, with solid brick walls and traditional features. There is a pleasant enclosed yard plus access to a communal garden, and the property benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). Council Tax Band A and freehold tenure reduce ongoing costs.
Buyers should note a few realistic drawbacks: the solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so energy efficiency could be improved; windows are older double glazing; and the surrounding area scores higher on deprivation indices. That said, excellent commuter links, local amenities, nearby good primary schools and a very low flood risk make this a practical entry-level purchase or a clear renovation/investment opportunity.
