This four-bedroom semi-detached home on Birds Nest Avenue offers flexible family living with strong rental potential. The ground floor includes an open-plan kitchen/living/dining area, a utility and a downstairs bedroom and shower — practical for multi-generational use or tenants. Outside there is a decent rear garden, detached garage and paved forecourt providing private parking. The property is Freehold and priced at £200,000.
The location benefits from excellent transport links, nearby Western Park green space and a range of local schools, shops and bus routes — appealing to commuting families and investors seeking steady demand. Internally the layout is sensible, with average-sized rooms and room for modernising the kitchen, bathrooms and decor to add value.
Buyers should note clear maintenance and neighbourhood considerations. The home would benefit from internal modernisation and possible insulation upgrades (system-built walls assumed lacking insulation). Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. The area shows high crime rates and very high deprivation indices, which may affect resale values and rental yields; prospective purchasers should factor this into affordability and insurance checks.
This property suits a buyer looking for a roomy, well-located home to update for family living, or an investor prepared to carry out improvements. The combination of private parking, garage and scope to modernise offers potential to increase comfort and capital value, but budget for works and consider local area challenges before committing.
