Step inside this two-bedroom semi-detached home on Brancepeth Avenue and you’ll find a straightforward layout ready for personalisation. The property is freehold with mains gas central heating, double glazing, off-street parking and a private rear garden — practical features that appeal to first-time buyers seeking low running costs and scope to improve.
The house was built in the post-war period and shows typical mid-20th-century character: red brick exterior, bay window and a modest room layout. Internally the rooms are moderate in size; the living room and kitchen-diner provide everyday living space but require cleaning and cosmetic attention. The garden is overgrown and the exterior shows wear, so expect basic maintenance and gardening work on move-in.
Location is convenient for local shops, frequent bus routes and a range of primary and secondary schools, including several rated Good or Outstanding. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and council tax is very low — practical advantages for a buyer mindful of monthly costs.
This property suits a first-time buyer or an investor prepared to carry out light refurbishment. The house offers sensible value at the asking price but is in a very deprived area with a high crime rate, which is an important consideration for buyers and may affect rental demand and resale timing.
