The property is freehold, well connected to public transport, local schools rated Good, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home-working or keeping tenants content.
Buyers should note some cosmetic and maintenance work is required: the internal staircase is unfinished and needs renovation, with stripped carpet and paint removal required. The plot is small and there’s limited external space; there’s no information on a rear garden. Local area metrics are average for crime and deprivation, so check neighbourhood suitability for your needs.
Overall this is an accessible, characterful two-bedroom terrace with sensible running costs (very cheap council tax) and clear potential to add value through modest refurbishment, particularly to the staircase and internal finishes.
