A compact two-bedroom, freehold Victorian end terrace offered at a low guide price and sold with a long-standing sitting tenant. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a simple kitchen; upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Gas central heating is provided by a combi boiler and there is an enclosed rear yard. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and local shops, buses and schools are all within easy walking distance.
The property requires renovation and some modernisation throughout — internal photos show dated decor, wall damage and worn fixtures. It sits in a selective licensing zone; additional licensing costs and compliance works may be payable by a purchaser. The area is very deprived with above-average crime rates, which will affect lettings and owner-occupier desirability for some buyers.
This is primarily a value-driven lot for investors or experienced renovators who can manage tenant transitions and licensing obligations, or a buyer looking for a low-entry purchase to refurbish for owner occupation. The size (approximately 725 sq ft) and small plot mean limited scope for major extension, but internal reconfiguration and cosmetic upgrades could raise rental or resale value. Council tax is band A, keeping holding costs low.
