This mid-20th-century three-bedroom terraced house on Dillotford Avenue offers practical family living with clear scope to add value. The layout includes a full-width lounge, open-plan kitchen/dining, three bedrooms and a fully tiled wet room. A single brick garage and small front and rear gardens provide useful storage and outdoor space. The property is offered chain free and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signal — useful for modern family life.
The house requires renovation and redecoration throughout; the kitchen, dining area and wet room will need upgrading. The heating flue requires support works and some windows may be older despite being double glazed. Buyers should factor refurbishment costs into their plans, but the generous room proportions and potential to convert to a fourth bedroom offer clear upside for growing families or investors seeking a straightforward refurbishment project.
Situated in a mainly social-renting area of south Coventry, local amenities, primary and secondary schools (including some rated Good and Outstanding) and regular bus links are nearby. The area has above-average crime and sits within a deprived ward, which may affect long-term resale values; however, the low council tax and competitive asking price reflect this. For buyers prioritising transport, connectivity and renovation potential, this property presents a realistic opportunity to create a comfortable family home.
Overall, this is a practical, value-driven purchase for a buyer prepared to refurbish. Its no-upward-chain status, garage and scope for reconfiguration make it particularly suitable for families wanting to personalise a long-term home or investors targeting rental demand in a well-connected city suburb.
