Two-bedroom Victorian terrace with garden — needs full modernisation and refurbishment.
Two bedrooms plus occasional/dressing room (potential en-suite subject to consent)
This Victorian mid-terrace in Ore Village offers a straightforward two-bedroom layout with separate lounge and dining rooms and a useful occasional/dressing room off the rear bedroom. The house sits on a small, level rear garden with gated back access and benefits from mains gas heating and partial double glazing.
The property is sold freehold and occupies a modest footprint (circa 840 sq ft). Room proportions are small-to-average for this era but feel deceptively spacious thanks to the traditional front-to-back arrangement. There is scope to reconfigure the occasional room into an en-suite or home workspace, subject to consents.
The home requires full modernisation throughout: kitchen, bathroom and decorative finishes need replacement, external brickwork and roof show minor defects and the solid walls likely lack cavity insulation. The property is best suited to a purchaser prepared to carry out renovation works — a first-time buyer seeking added value, a small family wanting a project, or an investor targeting rental or resale after refurbishment.
Be realistic about costs: the house will need cosmetic and some remedial works, and the local area records above-average crime and pockets of deprivation. On the plus side, local schools, amenities and fast broadband/mobile signal make this a practical urban location with good long-term demand for improved housing.
