This traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home on John Street is presented in good order and offers practical family living on an average-sized plot. The house benefits from two reception rooms—one with full-width French doors to the rear garden—a modern breakfast kitchen and a large family bathroom. Driveway parking and a low-maintenance paved garden add everyday convenience.
Internally the property feels spacious for its footprint with a wide entrance hall, built-in storage and well-proportioned bedrooms. Recent upgrades include a modern kitchen and a quality bathroom; double glazing and a gas boiler provide efficient day-to-day heating. Broadband and mobile signal in the area are strong, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby.
Important considerations: the house was constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so thermal upgrades could be needed to improve efficiency. The wider area is classified as very deprived with above-average local crime statistics, which prospective buyers should weigh alongside the property’s positive features. The plot and garden are small to average, and the property suits purchasers seeking a conventional, well-presented terraced/semi layout rather than extensive grounds.
At the listed price of £175,000, the home will appeal to first-time buyers, families and downsizers seeking a ready-to-move-in period property with scope for targeted energy improvements.
