Summary - 34, BIRKENSHAW WAY EH48 3QX
Three double/single bedrooms with built-in storage
A tidy, newly refreshed three-bedroom terrace ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking an affordable move-in-ready home. The house has been thoughtfully upgraded with fresh skimmed walls, plush new carpeting and a completely new, unused kitchen in contemporary grey tones. The kitchen’s large window and south-facing rear garden deliver good natural light and a pleasant outdoor spot for summer use. Sold as seen with white goods, blinds and light fittings included, the property offers immediate occupation with minimal short-term expense.
The ground floor provides flexible living: an open-plan lounge/dining room with a large window overlooking an established communal green, and generous built-in storage including cupboards beneath the stairs. Upstairs are three bedrooms—two doubles with built-in storage and a single that works well as a nursery, office or dressing room—and a neutral, fully tiled three-piece bathroom. At around 915 sq ft the footprint is modest but practical for a young family or a rental unit.
Outside, the front enjoys notable privacy with no houses directly opposite and scope for neighbours’ style of enclosing to form a private front garden. Rear access leads to a south-facing garden and convenient residents’/off-street parking adjacent to the property. Practical advantages include freehold tenure, a C EPC rating, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Notable considerations: the property sits in an area classified as very deprived with local socio-economic challenges; buyers should weigh local services and long-term resale expectations. The plot and garden are small and the single bathroom may suit smaller households better than larger families. While tastefully upgraded, the house remains a modest mid-20th-century terrace and further modernisation or layout changes would be a potential future project for buyers seeking higher long-term value.
