This substantial Victorian mid-terrace offers large, versatile family accommodation across multiple floors. High ceilings, bay windows and original fireplace detail give the house strong period character and a sense of space throughout. Two reception rooms, two large basement rooms and four double bedrooms make it well suited to a growing household.
The property needs renovation and cosmetic updating, which creates scope to modernise layouts or add value (attic and basement potential). Practical details: double glazing of unknown age, cavity walls likely without added insulation, mains gas boiler and radiators, and freehold tenure. Council tax is very low, which helps running costs.
Location is convenient for schools, shops and transport links, with several highly rated primary schools nearby. Buyers should note material negatives: the house is in a very deprived area with above-average crime rates, and it requires work throughout. For families seeking space and character to improve over time, this presents a clear opportunity; for those prioritising move-in condition or low-crime neighbourhoods, it may not suit.
