The layout includes a front reception, separate dining room, modern kitchen, downstairs bathroom and three upstairs rooms, two with en suites — a practical setup for sharers, first-time buyers or buy-to-let landlords.
The home benefits from a south-facing rear garden that receives good light, double glazing and mains gas central heating, reducing immediate running costs. Rooms are neutrally presented so there’s little urgency for cosmetic work, while modest footprint and efficient layout make the most of 765 sq ft.

Crime levels in the area are reported above average, and some services/appliances have not been professionally tested — purchasers are advised to commission their own surveys.
Overall this property will suit someone seeking a central, well-connected base with rental potential or an affordable step onto the housing ladder. There’s scope to personalise and improve thermal performance over time, making it a sensible long-term purchase for the right buyer.
