Summary - 1 WEMBLEY STREET SWINDON SN2 1DN
2 bed 2 bath End of Terrace
Affordable freehold starter with garage and garden, close to schools and shops.
Two double bedrooms and two bathrooms over two floors
A compact two-bedroom end-of-terrace with practical living space and a private rear garden, offered freehold in Ferndale, Swindon. The ground floor provides a lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and bathroom, while the first floor offers two double bedrooms and a shower room — a layout that suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. A detached garage with rear vehicle access is a useful parking and storage benefit for an urban plot.
The house is solid-brick 1930–49 construction with double glazing (installed before 2002) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The current EPC is D (around 59) but the property has scope to improve energy performance (insulation and window upgrades could move it closer to a B rating). Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home needs.
Be realistic about straightforward running costs and improvement work: the solid walls likely lack insulation and the glazing is older, so heating bills and upgrade costs should be expected. The immediate area is classified as deprived with a higher local crime rate, which will matter to some buyers and renters. The plot and garden are small, so outdoor space is low-maintenance rather than expansive.
For a buyer seeking an affordable entry into Swindon or a landlord targeting reliable rental demand, this property offers clear value: sensible room sizes, two bathrooms, nearby schools rated mostly Good, and easy access to town centre amenities and the McArthurGlen outlet. The strengths are practical: location, transport links, and a garage; the trade-offs are neighbourhood statistics and the need for energy-efficiency upgrades.
