This Victorian end-terrace on Cardwell Street is a clear value play for investors or buyers willing to renovate. The house offers a straightforward two-bedroom layout with a large open-plan lounge/diner, a practical fitted kitchen and a ground-floor bathroom — all on a 768 sq ft footprint. Double glazing, mains gas central heating and a private rear garden reduce immediate outlay while improving rental or resale appeal.
The property requires updating and modernisation throughout: cosmetic refurbishment, likely kitchen and bathroom renewal, and upgrade works to bring interiors up to contemporary standards. The solid brick construction suggests scope for improvement, but assumed lack of wall insulation and period fixtures mean energy-efficiency upgrades may be needed. No major flood risk is reported, but the local area is classified as deprived and has above-average crime statistics, which will affect tenant demand and pricing strategy.
With no upward chain and a low asking price, this house is suited to a hands-on investor aiming to add value or a first-time buyer prepared to DIY. Practical positives include a compact private garden, gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Downsides to factor into budgets: renovation costs, potential insulation work on solid walls, and the location’s higher crime and relative deprivation.
Viewing is recommended for those looking for a project with clear upside in purchase price and space. Accurate cost estimates from builders and checks on tenure are essential before exchange, and buyers should budget for improvement works and ongoing management if letting the property.
