Important facts and trade-offs: the property is relatively small for three bedrooms and has a single bathroom, so space-conscious buyers should view in person. The building is original solid brick (no known cavity insulation), the EPC is D and some buyers may want to upgrade insulation and glazing. Parking is by permit only; no off-street space. The area records a very high local crime score, which merits investigation by prospective purchasers.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located period home with sensible modern updates and clear potential to increase comfort and value with targeted refurbishment — a good fit for buyers seeking an immediate home with room to personalise or investors targeting rental demand in a strong commuter town.
