A compact one-bedroom Victorian stone cottage offering economical living close to local amenities and transport. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and small paved frontage make this a straightforward first home or buy-to-let with low running costs and a manageable garden.
The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating, and a modern shower room. The rear garden is landscaped with low-maintenance artificial grass and patio — ideal for easy outdoor use rather than large-scale gardening.
Buyers should note the very small overall footprint (approximately 347 sq ft), compact rooms and standard ceiling heights. The terrace was built before 1900 and external walls appear uninsulated; there are signs this cottage would benefit from updates and attention to damp/maintenance in places. The area is in a deprived ward, which may affect long-term resale performance.
This freehold cottage suits a practical first-time buyer wanting a low-cost starter home or an investor seeking a straightforward rental let in a well-connected location. Early viewing is recommended to assess room sizes and any renovation scope first-hand.
