This large two-bedroom Victorian terrace offers generous living space, a driveway and a long private rear garden — appealing to first-time buyers seeking character and future growth. Ground floor layout includes two spacious reception rooms, a modern galley kitchen, and a ground-floor shower room, while the first floor provides two double bedrooms and a main bathroom off the master.
Practical advantages include a recently installed Worcester Bosch boiler, mains gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown) and an inexpensive Council Tax band. The property currently achieves an estimated rental yield of over 6%, making it attractive to those considering letting later on.
Be clear about known issues: the house was built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, the local area records higher-than-average crime, and the site is in a high flood-risk zone — these factors affect insurance and retrofit costs. The EPC is D, so further energy improvements would reduce running costs and improve comfort.
Overall this home offers period charm, space and strong location benefits close to schools, parks and the M5, but buyers should budget for energy upgrades, flood and security considerations.
