Recently refurbished throughout — move-in ready
Two double bedrooms and bright living space
Separate utility room keeps kitchen clutter-free
Private driveway for off-street parking (no garage)

This recently refurbished two-bedroom semi delivers a straightforward, move-in-ready option for a first-time buyer. Light neutral interiors, modern fixtures and a separate utility room make everyday living simple and practical. The cul-de-sac location and private driveway add quiet and convenient off-street parking.
The compact garden is low-maintenance but will benefit from some lawn and tidy-up work. The house dates from the 1950s–60s with cavity walls; no wall insulation is assumed, so consider potential energy-efficiency upgrades. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed (installation date unknown).
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no onward chain and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful if you work from home. Be aware the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with average crime and a local profile of hard-pressed renters, which may affect longer-term resale expectations.
Overall, this is a competitively priced, compact home at £135,000 for someone seeking a ready-to-live-in starter property with straightforward scope for improvement and energy upgrades.
