The rear garden is a practical size and includes a powered summerhouse with WC — ideal as a home office, studio or additional entertaining space.
This property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers seeking a well-located, manageable home close to the town centre, railway station and local amenities. Gas central heating and double glazing are already fitted, making the house comfortable from day one. The freehold tenure and cheap council tax add to the running-cost appeal.
Buyers should note the small plot and absence of off-street parking, typical of its era, and that external walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. While the house has been neatly kept and recently decorated, there is scope to modernise certain elements and upgrade insulation for improved energy efficiency. The local area records higher crime levels, which may be a consideration for some purchasers.
Overall this is a well-appointed, characterful period end-terrace with sensible running costs and handy extra space in the summerhouse — a practical, central option for someone wanting a compact city home with renovation potential.
