This attractively modernised Victorian-style mid-terrace on Gill Street offers a ready-to-move-in layout ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers. The house has been recently refurbished throughout with a contemporary kitchen, refreshed bathroom, new floor finishes and double glazing, so immediate major works are unlikely. Being chain-free speeds purchase and the freehold tenure removes ground-rent concerns.
Accommodation is practical and well arranged across two floors: two reception rooms on the ground floor, a compact but well-fitted kitchen, and three well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. Room sizes are typical for an inner-terrace, giving efficient living space for a small family or sharers. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local schools and transport links are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the property sits in a deprived, hard-pressed neighbourhood with above-average local crime statistics; purchasers should factor neighbourhood safety and insurance considerations into their decision. The external footprint is small with a narrow street frontage and limited rear garden; there is little scope for extension to the rear or side. The façade shows signs of wear and would benefit from light external decoration.
Practical positives include low council tax (Band A), mains gas central heating with radiator system, and a low flood-risk location. The EPC rating is E — adequate, but further insulation or heating improvements could reduce running costs and increase future resale value. Overall, this property represents a realistic, low-maintenance entry onto the property ladder or a straightforward investment in an urban terrace with room for modest improvement.
