A compact three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering period character and practical living space across two floors. The property is freehold and comes with a small rear garden—rare for terraces in this price band—plus good digital connectivity and easy access to local shops and transport links.
Internally the layout is straightforward: lounge, kitchen-diner and bathroom on the ground floor with three bedrooms above. The house is presented as a tidy, liveable home but uses electric room heaters rather than a central heating system and the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so heating bills and comfort will improve with targeted investment.
This house suits first-time buyers wanting an affordable starter home or investors seeking rental potential in an industrious area. Nearby schools and amenities are within walking distance, and there is no flood risk. Be aware the neighbourhood shows higher-than-average crime and very high area deprivation; purchasers should factor in refurbishment and security improvements.
Overall, the property offers a low-entry-price terrace with character and realistic scope to add value through heating upgrades, insulation and cosmetic modernisation. Shared rear access should be confirmed legally before purchase.
