Set on elevated ground in a popular Crookes Road location, this Victorian semi-detached home offers two double bedrooms across four floors with plenty of character and scope. Original features such as exposed floorboards, a bay window and fireplace remain intact, while double glazing and mains gas heating provide useful modern comforts.
The property requires renovation throughout — cosmetic upgrading and some works are needed — which creates clear scope for value-add, whether for an owner-occupier or investor targeting professionals and mature students. A large front garden could potentially be converted to off-street parking subject to permissions, and the enclosed rear terraced patio offers low-maintenance outdoor space.
Location is a major selling point: walking distance to hospitals, universities, Broomhill shops, bars and restaurants. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, there is no flooding risk, and the freehold tenure plus a low council tax band help running costs. Note the wider area has a high crime score and the walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone — factor these into refurbishment plans and budgets.
For buyers willing to invest time and money, this property presents an affordable entry into S10 with rental or resale upside once updated. Those seeking a finished, move-in-ready home should expect to budget for improvements and possible structural or insulation upgrades given the house age.
