This extended mid-terraced house on Church Row offers a practical, affordable entry into homeownership with no onward chain and owned solar PV panels. The freehold property combines period character with updated elements — a modern kitchen and double glazing — suited to first-time buyers or small families seeking space without premium prices.
The ground floor provides flexible living with a reception room and a sizable kitchen plus utility; upstairs are three double bedrooms sharing a single family bathroom. The layout is straightforward and ready to occupy, though the single bathroom may be limiting for larger households and could be a renovation opportunity to increase value and convenience.
Externally there are enclosed gardens to front and rear, providing usable outdoor space for children or pets. The rear garden requires maintenance and investment to reach its full potential. Parking is on-street only. Buyers should note the property lies in an ex-mining area and the sandstone-built walls are likely uninsulated, which may be relevant for future insulation or structural enquiries.
Practical advantages include mains gas central heating with a combi boiler, a Council Tax Band B and an EPC rating of C, which together help keep running costs reasonable. Overall, this is a straightforward, cost-conscious home with scope to personalise and improve, ideally suited to buyers wanting a move-in option with potential to add value.
