This compact mid-terrace Victorian house has been newly renovated and offers a straightforward, low-cost city base close to transport and local amenities. At about 550 sq ft the layout is efficient: living room, dining kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom — practical for a first home or a rental let requiring minimal immediate work.
The property benefits from a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, a private rear yard, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical, everyday comforts for residents or tenants. Council tax is very low and there is no flood risk, which reduces running costs and some location concerns.
Buyers should note material limitations: the home is leasehold and sits in a high-crime, deprived area, which will affect resale and lettings in some markets. Construction details indicate original sandstone walls with no assumed insulation, and data shows no fixed heating system present (electric heaters are assumed). These factors may mean additional spending on security, insulation or a heating upgrade.
Nearby primary schools hold Good Ofsted ratings and local amenities include buses, leisure and sports facilities, plus a canal and wooded areas for recreation. For someone seeking an affordable, ready-to-move-in property with scope to add value through improved insulation and a heating system, this is a practical, no-frills opportunity.
