This two-bedroom mid-terrace in Birdwell offers a compact, recently updated home ideal for commuters or first-time buyers. The property is freehold, sits in an affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and includes a small rear garden plus a garage for secure parking and storage. Council tax is very low, helping running costs.
Internally the layout is practical: an open-plan living area and kitchen, a useful utility room, and two well-lit bedrooms upstairs. Some updates have been completed, so much of the home is ready to move into, but images and period features suggest parts — notably some windows and the kitchen — retain older fittings and could benefit from modernization to suit contemporary tastes. The house’s solid-brick, pre-1900 construction likely lacks wall insulation, which may affect heating efficiency despite mains gas boiler and radiators.
Positioned on Sheffield Road, the location benefits from local shops, an Aldi, bus links and nearby good primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted. It suits buyers seeking a manageable home with commuter convenience and scope to add value through targeted improvements. Note the local crime level is above average; viewings will help assess neighbourhood fit for families or quieter purchasers.
Overall this property blends period character with practical recent works and clear potential: move-in-ready in many respects, with honest room to improve energy performance and modernise certain finishes if desired.
