This mid-20th-century three-bedroom terraced house in Lee Chapel North offers a straightforward, affordable home with clear scope to add value. The layout includes a good-sized lounge, kitchen/diner, rear conservatory and three bedrooms across two floors, plus a garage and parking — practical assets that are increasingly rare for properties at this price. Freehold tenure and mains gas central heating keep running-cost basics simple.
The property requires renovation throughout, making it well suited to buyers prepared to modernise and personalise. The rear garden is paved with storage sheds but needs landscaping and tidy-up. The house appears to have cavity walls without added insulation (assumed), and double glazing with an unknown installation date — buyers should factor in potential energy-efficiency work and refurbishment costs.
Location is a genuine strength: within walking distance of the mainline station, close to local shops and transport links, and inside the catchment for several well-regarded primary and secondary schools (including an Outstanding primary). Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working. Note the wider area has higher deprivation and average crime rates; this is reflected in price and represents part of the investment case for an owner-occupier or buy-to-refurbish investor.
Practical considerations: verify planning/building consents for the rear extension and any works; services and appliances are not guaranteed to be in working order. For buyers who want space to improve and a garage for storage or parking, this property offers a tangible opportunity to create a comfortable family home or a renovated rental in a transport-connected location.
