This mid-terrace two-bedroom cottage on Gatewen Road offers a practical, affordable entry into Wrexham property ownership. The house benefits from two reception rooms, a recently fitted kitchen and bathroom, gas central heating and double glazing — all helping reduce immediate outlay for essential services. A large rear garden with paved seating, summerhouse and two off-street parking spaces is a rare combination for a terrace and adds genuine lifestyle and rental appeal.
The layout suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors: two well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs, a downstairs lounge and dining room, and functional kitchen and bathroom. The property is freehold, of traditional Victorian construction, and about 762 sq ft overall — manageable to maintain and straightforward to survey. There is no recorded flooding risk and council tax is low, which helps running costs.
Buyers should be clear about the trade-offs. The terrace was built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance could be needed. The wider area records above-average crime and higher deprivation, which may affect resale uplift and tenant demand in some segments. While parts of the house appear freshly fitted, other elements show room for general modernization and decorative updating.
Overall this is a practical, value-led property for a buyer seeking a reasonably priced family home or a landlord wanting a let-ready unit with scope to increase value through insulation, cosmetic updating or targeted improvements.
