This Victorian mid-terrace offers a genuine opportunity for first-time buyers or investors ready to add value. Two spacious reception rooms and large windows mean plenty of natural light, while period features such as a bay window and fireplace give the house character. The layout flows well and the sizeable rear garden is a standout for outdoor space and potential extension (subject to consents).
The property requires renovation throughout: modernisation of the kitchen and bathroom, updating heating/insulation, and general cosmetic works. Walls are original sandstone/limestone with no presumed insulation, and the house was built before 1900 — factor potential energy-efficiency upgrades and associated costs into your plans. Broadband and mobile signal are average locally.
Location is practical for commuting with strong motorway links and a range of local amenities nearby, including shops, pubs and bus links. Several well-rated primary schools are within reach. Note the local area has high crime levels and elevated deprivation indicators; buyers should weigh these social factors alongside the low asking price and renovation potential.
Sold freehold with an EPC rating of E, this property is realistically aimed at buyers who want to personalise a period home and can manage renovation work, or investors seeking a project in a commuter-friendly area.
