A compact, double-fronted two-bedroom cottage arranged all on one level — ideal for buyers seeking a low-maintenance, single-storey home. The property is offered chain free and benefits from double glazing, combi gas central heating and a conservatory that extends the living space. A roller-shutter rear access provides secure off-street parking — a rare find for this terrace location.
The layout is open-plan between lounge and dining, creating a spacious feel through the heart of the house. The property was originally three bedrooms and could be converted back, offering simple scope to increase sleeping accommodation or add value. Local amenities, good primary and secondary schools, and regular transport links are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the interior is dated in places — 1980s-style finishes, textured ceilings and wood panelling — and will benefit from modernisation. The plot is small and the wider area is economically challenged, with average crime levels and very deprived area indicators; sensible buyers should factor this into long-term plans. Council Tax sits at Band A, and broadband and mobile coverage are good for the postcode.
Overall, this freehold property suits someone looking to downsize into a manageable, single-level home with renovation potential and secure parking, or an investor seeking a fairly priced terrace with clear improvement opportunities.
