Step inside this compact two-room mid-terrace in the historic quarter of Buckingham. The ground floor offers an open-plan lounge and modern-style kitchen with fitted appliances and wooden flooring, while the first floor has a double bedroom, a further room suitable as a dressing room or home office, and a shower room. The property is chain-free and sold freehold, making a quick move possible.
Built c.1900–1929 of solid brick with PVCu double glazing and gas central heating to radiators, the cottage is structurally conventional but requires some modernization. The EPC rating D and assumed lack of wall insulation mean energy improvements could reduce running costs and increase comfort. Rooms are small throughout, so careful furniture planning is needed.
Location is a primary selling point: a short walk to Buckingham town centre and the University of Buckingham, with local pubs, leisure facilities and several well-rated schools nearby. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent. Note the area records higher crime levels statistically; prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on local safety and security measures.
This property suits a first-time buyer, small household or investor seeking a low-entry freehold opportunity with refurbishment upside. The compact footprint and very small plot mean there is no rear garden or garage, so outdoor space is limited.
