This traditional late-Victorian cottage offers generous rooms and clear scope for improvement. The property is freehold and sits on an average-sized plot with private front and south-facing rear gardens, useful for families or buyers seeking outdoor space. A Worcester Bosch gas boiler was installed in January 2023 and partial double glazing is fitted, so core heating is recent.
Accommodation is arranged over two levels and currently provides flexible layout: sitting room, ground-floor double bedroom (or second reception), kitchen, bathroom, and two upper bedrooms including a very large double extending over 19 feet. The upper floor has scope to be reconfigured to provide three good bedrooms; the vendor notes this is commonly done in similar houses.
The cottage requires considerable upgrading and modernisation throughout — cosmetic and structural finishes are dated and some rooms need refurbishment. Buyers should factor renovation costs for kitchen, bathroom, decoration and potential wiring/plumbing updates. The property is competitively priced to reflect that work and could suit an investor, DIY buyer or first-time buyer looking to add value.
Practical positives include private enclosed gardens, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. The location is in an outer-city area with higher deprivation; local amenities and transport links are available but buyers should consider wider area socio-economic factors when assessing resale or rental potential.
