Summary - 26 26 Jennings Street, Rodbourne, Swindon, SN2 SN2 2BD
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Large garden and strong conversion potential for investors.
Victorian mid-terrace with two-storey rear extension
A substantial Victorian mid-terrace with a two-storey rear extension, this three-bedroom property offers clear scope for an investor or a hands-on buyer prepared to renovate. The house is larger than typical nearby terraces (approx. 1,196 sq ft) and includes a long rear garden with gated side access — useful for separate entrances if converting.
The layout currently provides an entrance hall, living room, open-plan sitting/dining area, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and three double bedrooms with an upstairs shower room. The property could be converted into an HMO or split into two flats subject to consents; early viewing will suit buyers seeking value-add rental or development opportunities.
Important faults are stated plainly: the house needs renovation, there is an old internal lift of unknown working order, glazing was fitted before 2002, walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and crime levels in the locality are high. The listing also notes uncertainty about central heating — records show mains gas and a boiler, but the seller indicates no working central heating. EPC is to be confirmed; surveys are recommended.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, decent plot size, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, city-town location with nearby shops, schools and transport. For buyers after a project with strong upside — refurbishment, HMO or two-flat conversion — this property offers clear potential, but budget for structural, energy-efficiency and safety upgrades.
