Offered chain-free, this three-bedroom semi-detached home is a clear investment and refurbishment opportunity. The property sits on a generous plot with off-street parking and a large rear garden that offers scope for landscaping or extension (subject to planning). The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge with a feature fireplace, kitchen and three first-floor bedrooms with a family bathroom.
The house requires full renovation throughout — the kitchen, bathroom, and general interior need modernisation and there are signs of roof and external maintenance. Buyers should budget for comprehensive works rather than cosmetic updating. For investors, the combination of no chain and decent plot size creates potential for value uplift after improvement.
Location-wise the property is close to local shops, schools and transport links. Several nearby primary and secondary schools have Good or Outstanding Ofsted ratings. Practical benefits include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and very low council tax.
Important considerations: the local area is classified as very deprived with high crime levels, and the house is in need of substantial renovation. This is a suitable purchase for an experienced investor, developer, or a buyer prepared to undertake a full refurbishment to create a comfortable family home.
