3 bedrooms with two reception rooms and a dining room fireplace|Large, private rear garden — good for families and gardening|Solid brick Victorian build — character but likely no wall insulation|Heating via LPG boiler; consider running cost and fuel logistics|Single bathroom only — may be limiting for larger families|Double glazing present; install date unknown|Average broadband and mobile signal; area economically deprived|Very low council tax — ongoing cost advantage
This three-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house on Moira Road offers practical family living in a quiet village setting. The ground floor has two reception rooms, including a dining room with a fireplace, while three upper bedrooms and a single bathroom suit a growing household. The rear garden is a standout — decent size and private, ideal for children, pets or vegetable plots.
The property is freehold, built before 1900 with solid brick walls and double glazing (install date unknown). Heating is provided by an LPG-fired boiler and radiators — convenient if mains gas is not required, but running costs and cylinder refills should be considered. Council tax is very low, which helps ongoing affordability.
There is scope to improve energy performance and modernise finishes: solid walls likely lack insulation and the home would benefit from targeted upgrades (insulation, kitchen/bathroom modernisation) to reduce bills and add value. Broadband and mobile signal are average and the surrounding area shows signs of deprivation, though local schools have good Ofsted ratings. Easy road access to the M42 gives straightforward commuter links.
This house suits first-time buyers or families seeking a character property with a large garden and renovation potential. Expect straightforward living now with clear opportunities to invest in comfort, energy efficiency and cosmetic updating for longer-term gain.
