Summary - 17, Telford Drive DL1 1HA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Well-presented three-bed starter home with garage and garden, sold chain-free.
Chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached freehold property
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Telford Drive offers a straightforward, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers. Recently re-decorated throughout and offered chain-free, the home has practical living spaces, a rear enclosed garden and a separate garage/outbuilding for storage or parking.
The ground-floor lounge is a comfortable size for family life and the kitchen, while serviceable, reflects a late-20th-century design and would benefit from modernization to suit contemporary tastes. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single bathroom, making the layout suitable for a small family or sharers.
Practical strengths include double glazing, mains gas central heating, an EPC around band C, freehold tenure and very low council tax. The property sits in a quiet cul-de-sac close to local shops, several good-rated schools and regular transport links, which supports everyday convenience.
Buyers should note material negatives: the area scores high for crime and very high on local deprivation measures, the plot is small, and parking is mainly on-street. These factors affect resale and rental appeal and are important for buyers to weigh against the low asking price and chain-free purchase.
Overall, this is a budget-friendly, well-presented starter home with clear potential for value-added improvements in the kitchen and garden. It will suit buyers wanting an affordable entry into homeownership who accept the local area constraints and are prepared to update parts of the property over time.
