Private roof terrace plus enclosed rear courtyard and garage
Gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown)

Above-average local crime rate; area shows signs of deprivation

Well-presented Victorian mid-terrace arranged over two storeys, offered freehold and occupying a generous internal floor area for the type. The house offers period character—bay window, fireplace and high ceilings—alongside practical modern comforts such as gas central heating and double glazing. A private roof terrace, rear courtyard and a rear garage add useful outside space rarely found on inner-city terraces.
This layout suits a first-time buyer seeking a spacious starter home or an investor targeting student or city-centre lettings. There are two good double bedrooms, a smaller third bedroom, two reception rooms and a family bathroom with a separate ground-floor WC. The kitchen opens to the enclosed courtyard and the garage provides useful storage or tenant parking at the rear.
Buyers should note the property sits in a busy, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with above-average crime and local area deprivation—factors that influence demand and insurance/management considerations if rented. The plot is narrow, street parking is primary at the front, and the building appears to be constructed pre-1900 with granite walls that likely lack insulation — further retrofit could be required to improve energy efficiency. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown.
Overall this is a solid, flexible home with clear potential to personalise and improve value. For first-time buyers it offers generous living space and helpful outside assets (roof terrace, courtyard, garage); for investors it provides proximity to the university and city centre. Factor in the local area characteristics and potential improvement costs when deciding to view.
