This traditional mid-terrace from the 1860s combines period character with a practical two-bedroom layout. The house offers deceptively spacious accommodation across two storeys, with a welcoming living room, kitchen/diner, and two double bedrooms — suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking central Penrith convenience.
Externally the property has a small paved forecourt to the front and a larger rear garden with raised beds, shed/workshop, electric point and outside tap. The plot is modest but useable, and the rear store/area of the former WC adds practical storage for a terraced home.
Notable positives include freehold tenure, close proximity to the train station and M6, and several well-rated local schools. Broadband and mobile signal are good, and council tax is in a lower band (Band B), keeping running costs comparatively low.
Buyers should be aware of material limitations: internal rooms are modest in size, the property footprint and private frontage are small, and the wider area records higher-than-average local crime. The EPC is listed as TBC, so buyers should expect to arrange an energy assessment and factor potential energy-efficiency work into plans. Overall this is a characterful, centrally located terrace with sensible scope for cosmetic updating rather than major structural change.
