Broadband and mobile signal are excellent and crime levels are very low.
There is clear scope to personalise or extend (subject to planning), which will appeal to buyers seeking to add value. The property is currently leasehold with about 54 years remaining; this materially affects mortgage availability and may restrict some buyers. Buyers should seek specialist advice on lease extension costs and financing options before committing.
Overall this is a practical, well-located terrace that will suit first-time buyers, small families or buy-to-let investors looking for straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation with outdoor space and good transport links. Be aware of the constrained lease term when assessing affordability and mortgageability.
