This mid‑20th century semi delivers a straightforward starter-family layout: bay-front lounge, open kitchen-diner and three bedrooms. The rear garden, side drive and garage add practical space for parking, storage or a small workshop.
The house shows genuine potential for improvement. The footprint is typical for the era, with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), double glazing and mixed heating — mains gas boiler and radiators are listed, while several rooms have electric storage heaters. The Energy Performance Certificate is E, so modernisation and insulation work would improve comfort and running costs.
Important local facts: the area is classed as very deprived with above-average crime statistics, so buyers should factor neighbourhood context into their decision. Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and good local schools within easy reach.
Overall this is a compact, affordable freehold home priced to reflect its size and condition. It will suit first-time buyers wanting a manageable renovation project, buy-to-let investors seeking rental income, or families needing sensible space with scope to upgrade.
