Affordable, modern two-bed starter home with parking and low-maintenance garden.
Two bedrooms in a compact 560 sq ft semi-detached house
Modern fitted kitchen with French doors to rear garden
Spacious reception room with good natural light
Off-street parking for one vehicle; small front bedding area
Tiered rear garden with artificial lawn—low maintenance
EPC C and council tax band B—reasonable running costs
Small rooms and overall footprint; not suitable for large family
Located in a deprived wider area—consider long-term growth implications
This compact two-bedroom semi-detached house on Royle Road offers an affordable, ready-to-move-in option for a first-time buyer or small household. The reception room and kitchen are presented in a modern style with good natural light, contemporary finishes, and practical vinyl/laminate flooring, so immediate cosmetic work is minimal. The property benefits from off-street parking and a tiered rear garden with artificial lawn for low-maintenance outdoor space.
Internally the layout is straightforward: porch, reception room, fitted kitchen with French doors to the garden, two first-floor bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed. The home’s EPC rating of C and council tax band B keep running costs reasonable.
Important considerations: the overall floor area is modest (approximately 560 sq ft) and rooms are small-to-average, so this is best suited to a buyer needing compact accommodation rather than large-family living. The property sits in a generally deprived wider area, which may affect long-term capital growth compared with more affluent neighbourhoods. The plot and garden are small and the single parking space is limited for multi-car households.
Overall, this property is a practical, low-maintenance starter home with modern finishes and good commuter links. Buyers seeking a manageable, affordable purchase with scope to personalise should consider a viewing to assess space and potential improvements.
