An affordable Victorian mid-terrace with clear refurbishment potential, offered chain-free at a budget price. The house provides three first-floor bedrooms, a downstairs bathroom and two reception rooms arranged across a compact 929 sq ft layout. Period details such as a focal fireplace and red brick exterior give the property character to retain during updating.
Practical positives include double-glazed windows, gas radiators, a secure private yard and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for rental or first-time occupancy. The location is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools, local shops and everyday amenities, making it suitable for families or tenants seeking convenience.
Important to note: the property needs renovation throughout. Buyers should allow for refurbishment costs and the work required to modernise services and finishes. The immediate area is classified as deprived with average local crime levels; this could impact resale timing and rental yields. There is no flood risk and the home is freehold with very low council tax, which helps running costs.
This is a straightforward project for a cash buyer, investor or hands-on first-time buyer looking to add value. Clear, honest budgeting and a realistic programme for repairs and improvements will be key to unlocking the property’s potential.
