Summary - 24 ORWELL ROAD COVENTRY CV1 2BB
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Compact freehold terrace near Coventry centre — investment or first-home potential.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace, 736 sqft, two bedrooms
This mid-terrace Victorian house in CV1 offers a compact, practical two-bedroom layout across 736 sqft on a freehold title. Positioned within walking distance of Coventry city centre and local schools, it suits investors seeking student or rental income and first-time buyers who want a budget entry with scope to personalise. The property has been let and maintained by tenants and presents a straightforward canvas for updating.
Key liveable features include an enclosed rear garden, gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and double glazing (install date unknown). The accommodation includes an entrance hall, sitting/dining room, galley kitchen and bathroom on the ground floor, with two bedrooms upstairs. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal excellent, which supports rental demand and modern living.
Important considerations: the house needs renovation and is set in an area described as deprived with high local crime rates; walls are solid brick with no known insulation (assumed), so energy upgrade work may be required. The plot is small and rooms are compact, so extension potential is limited without planning. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
For investors: the location is popular for students and lettings close to transport and amenities, making it a candidate for buy-to-let with immediate rental history. For owner-occupiers: this is a budget purchase where cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements will add value and comfort. An open house is scheduled for 22nd August, 12:30–18:00.
