Two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with period stone exterior
A compact Victorian mid-terrace with genuine starter-home and investment appeal in central Buxton. The property is offered freehold with no onward chain and sits a short walk from shops, schools and Pavilion Gardens — an attractive base for singles, couples or landlords targeting short-term lets in a spa-town location.
The ground floor features an entrance porch, living room and kitchen, with two first-floor bedrooms and a shower room. Both front garden and private rear yard provide outdoor space uncommon for this price band. The house is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; council tax is very low, helping keep ongoing costs down.
The fabric is traditional sandstone/limestone and the house retains period character, but it needs modernisation throughout. Double glazing is older (pre-2002), there appears to be no wall insulation (as built) and interiors show dated fittings and decor — a straightforward refurbishment would significantly improve comfort and value. High local crime levels are recorded for the area and the plot is small, which may matter to families seeking larger outdoor space.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor aiming to add value through improvement work. With quick access to commuter links and Buxton’s amenities, it’s a practical, affordable entry to the local market for those prepared to update the home.
