This garden-fronted Victorian mid-terrace has been freshly refurbished and is offered with no onward chain, making it an appealing move-in-ready option for a first-time buyer. The layout includes a living room, dining room open to a fitted kitchen, three bedrooms upstairs and a three-piece bathroom with a shower over the bath. New floor coverings and neutral decoration mean minimal immediate work is required internally.
Practical extras include two cellar rooms that provide flexible storage or potential utility space, gas central heating via a combination boiler, and uPVC double glazing. The property sits within walking distance of Rhyddings Park and local shops, and is close to several good primary schools, which adds day-to-day convenience.
Notable constraints are factual: the home is on a small plot with a wall-enclosed yard rather than a large garden, is in an area with high crime levels and very high deprivation indicators, and lies within a district classified as deprived blue-collar terraces. The stone walls date from before 1900 and are assumed uninsulated, which could mean higher heating demand despite gas central heating. EPC rating D is middling; improvement work could raise efficiency and resale value.
Overall this property suits a buyer looking for an affordable, characterful starter home with some period features and usable cellar space, who is comfortable living in an urban, working-class neighbourhood. Its freehold tenure, low council tax band and lack of sale chain make it straightforward to purchase, while modest upgrade work to thermal performance would be a sensible long-term investment.
