A solid Victorian red-brick semi in central Ibstock, this two-bedroom home offers clear potential for buyers willing to modernise. The property has two reception rooms, a separate kitchen and traditional features such as bay windows and chimneys that give genuine period character.
Structurally straightforward as an ex-council solid-brick build, the house is freehold and heated by a mains-gas boiler with radiators. It benefits from double glazing (installation date unknown), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters and working households. Local amenities, good-rated schools and strong transport links are all within walking distance.
The property requires renovation throughout: cosmetic updating, possible insulation improvements to solid walls, and buyer-conducted checks on services are advised. On-street parking only and a small plot mean outdoor space is limited. The surrounding area has above-average crime and higher deprivation indicators, which buyers should weigh alongside the affordable price and upgrade potential.
This home suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors aiming to add value; with sympathetic updating it could become a comfortable town residence or a rented investment with steady demand.
