Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Shaw, this three-bedroom townhouse offers a compact, well-presented home suited to a young family. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge, modern dining kitchen, three bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom — all set within a modest 636 sq ft. Allocated off-street parking and well-maintained landscaped gardens provide practical outdoor space; a rooftop deck adds a private spot for fresh air and views.
Practical benefits include a long lease (999 years from 1972, c.945 years remaining), low annual ground rent (£15.50), mains gas central heating and double glazing. Local amenities are close by: reputable primary and secondary schools, bus links and a nearby metro-link station for commuting. The property’s position on the cul-de-sac delivers low traffic and very low local crime.
Important considerations: the property has an EPC rating of D and cavity walls are recorded with no insulation assumed, so energy costs and thermal comfort could be improved. The home is compact with one bathroom and limited overall floor area, and it lies in a deprived area which may affect resale dynamics. Council tax band is very cheap, which is a running-cost positive.
This home will suit buyers seeking an affordable, low-maintenance family starter with good transport links and outdoor space, and those willing to carry out targeted energy-efficiency improvements. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the tucked-away position and practical layout.
