3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Well-presented period home near town and stations, ready to occupy or rent.
Three bedrooms, one bathroom; third bedroom accessed through second (limited privacy)
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace circa 1900–1929 with period features
Open-plan kitchen/diner and comfortable living room with electric fire
Useful cellar for storage or potential conversion (check permissions)
Moderate rear garden with deck, patio and good privacy
Solid brick construction likely without cavity insulation — consider upgrades

High local crime and area deprivation — affects resale/rental prospects
This attractive three-bedroom mid-terrace on Melville Road suits first-time buyers and investors seeking a ready-to-move-in period home close to town. The living room leads to an open-plan kitchen/diner and the rear garden provides private outdoor space—ideal for everyday family life or rental appeal.
The house is freehold, double-glazed, gas‑heated with boiler and radiators, and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—practical for homeworking and modern living. A useful cellar offers extra storage or scope to adapt, subject to permissions.
Layout limitations are practical realities: the third bedroom is accessed through the second, so it works best as a nursery, dressing room or home office rather than a fully private bedroom. The building is a solid-brick period terrace likely without cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for possible energy-efficiency improvements.
Location is a strong selling point — the town centre and main stations are within walking distance for commuting and amenities. Note the property sits in a high-crime, higher-deprivation area; that can affect resale and rental yields and should be weighed against the lower asking price and cheap council tax.
Overall this is a well-presented terrace offering good immediate practicality and obvious potential for modest upgrades. It’s particularly suitable for first-time buyers wanting a manageable family home or investors seeking a centrally located rental with straightforward refurbishment upside.
