This recently remodelled three-bedroom semi-detached house on Bennett Street offers ready-to-move-in accommodation aimed at first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance starter home. The property benefits from a refitted kitchen and bathroom, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, so day-to-day running is straightforward and modern in feel.
Externally there is a front garden, an elevated rear garden finished in astro turf with a timber summerhouse, and a side driveway providing off-street parking. The plot is modest but practical; importantly, planning permission has been granted for a two-storey side extension, creating clear scope to increase living space and long-term value with relatively low planning risk.
The interior is compact (approximately 476 sq ft) with a comfortable lounge, three bedrooms and a ground-floor cloakroom. The property is freehold and council tax band A, making monthly costs comparatively low; broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area. The local schooling and transport links are adequate for family life, and nearby open green space sits within walking distance.
Buyers should note the wider area records higher-than-average crime and notable economic deprivation; prospective purchasers may want to check local reports and insurance implications. The house footprint is modest, so the immediate living space will suit first-time buyers or small families rather than those needing large rooms without extension. Buyers interested in further enlargement should factor in the costs of executing the approved two-storey side extension and any internal finishing.
