This mid-terraced Victorian home on Mill Street offers a roomy two-bedroom layout and clear potential for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to refresh the property. The house is chain-free and sold freehold as a probate sale, so a straightforward sale process is likely once probate is granted. Broadly usable living space includes separate lounge and dining rooms, a kitchen, ground-floor shower room and a larger first-floor bathroom — useful for families or sharers.
The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing fitted since 2002 and reasonable broadband options (up to ultrafast where available). An enclosed rear yard gives private outdoor space in a small-town setting with local shops, a convenience store and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby.
Material points to note: the house requires cosmetic updating and general renovation, and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated which will affect heating efficiency and renovation costs. The location is in a former mining area and local crime levels are above average; prospective buyers should factor potential insurance or survey implications into their plans. Mobile phone signal is limited.
At £70,000 for about 802 sq ft, the property represents value for those willing to invest time and money to modernise — ideal for a practical first-time buyer seeking space and low council tax, or an investor targeting rental demand in a working-town catchment.
