Summary - 26 DRYDEN STREET SWINDON SN1 5LA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Freehold Victorian terrace, central location, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Two double bedrooms, two reception rooms
This mid-terraced Victorian townhouse sits in Swindon town centre and offers straightforward accommodation across two floors: two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with appliances, two double bedrooms and a ground-floor bathroom. At about 724 sq ft the rooms are modest but functional, and the small enclosed rear garden with gated access is a useful outdoor space for city living. The property is offered freehold and with no onward chain, making it easier to move quickly for a buyer or landlord.
The house will suit a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a central location and rental demand. The building appears structurally typical for its age, with double glazing installed after 2002 and an EPC rating of C. Local amenities, schools rated Good, and excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds add practical appeal for city living and letting.
Buyers should note some material issues to factor into budget and plans. Photographs show signs of damp and mould in the living room, and the interior needs light modernisation and cosmetic updating. Heating is inconsistently recorded (property literature references gas central heating, while technical data lists electric storage heaters); this should be confirmed at survey stage. The area records very high crime levels, and there is no off-street parking or significant external grounds.
Overall this property offers central, characterful accommodation with obvious potential after updating. It is best suited to those prepared to do cosmetic works or to investors who will factor remedial costs and local market conditions into their purchase decision.
