Above-average local crime and very deprived area classification
A chain-free, three-bedroom semi-detached home on Grove Road offers a straightforward entry onto the property ladder. The house has a practical layout with lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a family bathroom, plus double-glazed windows and off-street parking. The plot is a decent size with a front and rear garden, giving space for children or container gardening.
Running costs and immediate works are clear to budget for: the property is heated by electric room heaters and not connected to a communal gas system, and the cavity walls have no added insulation (assumed). These factors affect bills and future improvement plans but also create scope to add value by upgrading insulation and heating over time.
Location strengths include fast broadband, nearby primary and secondary schools (several rated Good or Outstanding) and easy access to town amenities. Be aware the local area records above-average crime and sits within a very deprived area classification; buyers should factor in local context when assessing long-term investment or family suitability.
This home suits first-time buyers wanting a manageable, chain-free purchase with realistic refurbishment potential. With sensible improvements to heating and insulation, the property could become a more comfortable, lower-cost home and increase in market appeal.
