Set on Old Hall Road, this two-bedroom end-terrace is a straightforward renovation project with strong scope for uplift. The house retains Victorian character such as high ceilings and a period fireplace, giving a desirable backdrop for a sympathetic modernisation. Rooms are spacious for the property type, and the layout is immediately workable for a family or couple.
The property requires a full refurbishment: the kitchen, bathroom and general decor will need replacing, and the heating relies on electric storage heaters. The walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation and windows are secondary glazed, so expect improvement work to achieve modern energy efficiency and comfort levels. These are typical costs for older, solid-wall homes and important to budget for.
Practical positives include a small rear garden and off-street parking, plus a convenient city/major town location with good local amenities and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, which suits home working or online leisure. The area is classified as more deprived overall, so buyers should consider longer-term resale factors alongside the renovation potential.
This property will suit a first-time buyer prepared to take on a project or an investor looking for a refurbishment opportunity. With the right investment and planning, the house could be transformed into a comfortable, characterful home or a let-ready investment with improved energy performance and modern facilities.
