This mid-terraced Victorian two-bedroom home blends period character with practical modern upgrades. The lounge centres on a multi-fuel burner and flows into a dining/reception, while a contemporary kitchen offers usable day-to-day space for a small household.
Two double bedrooms and a family bathroom sit upstairs; rooms are bright and benefit from south-facing garden light. At about 743 sq ft the layout suits first-time buyers, couples or buy-to-let purchasers seeking a straightforward property with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential.
Material points to note: the house is leasehold and lies in a very deprived area classification, so buyers should check lease terms and local market comparables. The cavity walls appear uninsulated and the double glazing predates 2002, so energy-efficiency improvements (and associated costs) are likely to be needed. EPC rating D and earlier glazing mean bills could be higher than a modern build.
Overall this is an affordable, characterful home with sensible scope for value-adding improvements — insulation, window upgrades and cosmetic modernisation would both improve comfort and increase market appeal.
