A well-presented Victorian mid-terrace offering two double bedrooms and a flexible open-plan living area in the heart of Abington. The ground floor flows from a front lounge into a dining area with PVC French doors to a private courtyard garden, while the kitchen gives access to a tanked, converted cellar — useful storage or utility space. UPVC sash-style windows to the front and gas central heating provide period character with everyday comfort.
At about 964 sq ft, the layout suits a first-time buyer wanting a ready-to-live-in home with clear scope to add value. The solid-brick walls (typical of early 20th-century build) and an EPC rating of D indicate basic thermal performance; targeted improvements such as loft and wall insulation, and modern glazing upgrades could reduce running costs and improve EPC.
Practical points are straightforward: freehold tenure, council tax band A and no upward chain make for a simple purchase. On-street parking and fast broadband/mobile signal are useful local conveniences. Nearby schools (including a highly-rated boys’ secondary) and a dense local amenity offer mean everyday needs are within short walking distance.
Important negatives are factual: the area records higher crime and very high deprivation compared with national averages, and the plot is small with a courtyard-style garden—so outdoor space is modest. Buyers seeking a low-crime, suburban setting or a large garden may find this location less suitable. Renovation potential exists, but buyers should allow budget for improving insulation and possibly upgrading the EPC-rated systems.
