Set on Marlow Road, this extended terraced house offers generous living space across approximately 933 sq ft, including two double bedrooms, a separate dining room and a breakfast kitchen with pantry. The property is chain free and benefits from a gated driveway, covered secure access and a mature rear garden — rare features for this neighbourhood.
The house retains period character with a bay front and solid brick construction, and is served by mains gas central heating and double glazing. Local amenities are close by: several Good-rated primary and secondary schools, shops, bus routes and leisure facilities are all within easy reach, making it practical for young families or buy-to-let purchasers.
Buyers should note the area records higher crime and very high deprivation indices, which may affect long-term resale and rental yields. The rear garden is overgrown and needs attention; parts of the property suggest typical maintenance and modernisation work may be required (wall insulation unknown). Plot size is small and room sizes are modest despite the overall large footprint.
This house suits purchasers seeking immediate occupancy or a renovation opportunity in a convenient location. The combination of driveway parking, separate reception rooms and no onward chain gives clear potential for a comfortable family home or an investment with uplift after straightforward improvements.
