This garden-fronted Victorian mid-terrace offers practical living for a first-time buyer or investor. The house provides two bedrooms plus a loft room, two reception rooms and a recently renovated three-piece bathroom, so it’s move-in ready in key areas while retaining scope for improvement.
Outside, there’s an enclosed rear yard and useful external storage — low-maintenance outdoor space that suits city living. The property sits within walking distance of local shops, amenities and several Good-rated primary and secondary schools, with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and straightforward access to major road links.
Be clear about the constraints: the home is leasehold and located in an area classified as deprived with above-average crime; walls are traditional sandstone/limestone with assumed no insulation, and double glazing has an unknown install date. These factors mean further refurbishment or energy-efficiency upgrades may be needed to reduce running costs and improve comfort.
For buyers seeking an affordable entry into the area (council tax described as very cheap) this house balances immediate usability with renovation potential. No flood risk is recorded, and mains gas boiler heating is in place. The layout and period character give scope to personalise and add value over time.
