This three-bedroom mid-terrace on Wellburn Road is a chain-free opportunity aimed squarely at investors or value-focused buyers. The property offers practical indoor space across about 965 sq ft, a low-maintenance front and rear garden, and mains gas heating with a C-rated EPC — a solid base for short-term refurbishment or rental use.
Internally the layout includes a living room, separate dining room with patio doors to the garden, a kitchen, ground-floor WC, three bedrooms and a recently updated bathroom with a walk-in shower. The house requires general modernisation to reach market rents or sale premiums; cosmetic works and potential improvement to insulation will add noticeable value.
Be factual about location factors: the area is classified as deprived with higher-than-average crime, and the property sits in a neighbourhood of social renters and industrious transitions. These factors can depress capital growth but support steady rental demand and attractive yields at the asking price. Council Tax is very low (Band A), broadband and mobile signals are strong, and flood risk is low.
For investors this is a straightforward, low-plot-cost buy-and-improve prospect: update the kitchen and heating controls, upgrade insulation where possible, and carry out cosmetic refreshes to increase appeal. First-time buyers willing to do work could also create a comfortable family home, though buyers should budget for renovation and factor in local socio-economic challenges.
