Renovation-ready terrace in Latchford — ideal first-time buyer project.
Three bedrooms and two reception rooms, bay-fronted living room
A traditional three-bedroom terraced house in Latchford offering clear scope for first-time buyers to add value. The property has two reception rooms, a practical kitchen and a private low-maintenance rear yard — useful for small families or those wanting separate living and dining spaces. The bay-fronted living room brings good natural light and the overall layout feels spacious for the size.
Important practical points: the house is leasehold, requires renovation and modernisation throughout, and has cavity walls assumed to lack insulation. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; double glazing was fitted after 2002 but the EPC is D. There is only one bathroom and parking is on-street.
The area is an established, working-class terrace neighbourhood close to local shops, amenities and good local schools rated Good by Ofsted. Fast broadband and average mobile signal support home working. For buyers willing to renovate, this property presents a relatively affordable entry into WA4 with scope to improve energy performance and interior finishes to increase value.
Buyers should note the neighbourhood’s wider deprived classification and that the house needs updating — budget for refurbishment, possible insulation work and cosmetic overhaul. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs while you improve the home.
