Set on a generous corner plot, this traditional three-bedroom semi-detached house is offered freehold and chain free. The property extends to about 80 sq m (861 sq ft) with gardens to the front, side and rear and a garage — useful for storage or conversion subject to checks. Main heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; double glazing was fitted after 2002.
The layout includes an entrance hallway, principal lounge with double doors to a dining room and an adjoining kitchen, plus a rear lobby with two stores and a ground-floor WC. All three bedrooms and a single first-floor bathroom are on the upper level. Broadband speeds are reported fast and nearby primary schools have Good Ofsted ratings.
The house requires renovation and updating throughout — cosmetic and likely mechanical works are needed to bring it to modern standards. EPC is D and the accommodation is sold as seen; services and appliances have not been tested. The area has a higher-than-average crime rate and sits in a very deprived local authority ward, which may affect resale values and tenant demand.
At the advertised price this property offers opportunity for buyers prepared to invest time and cash: suitable for first-time buyers seeking a long-term home with improvement scope, or investors targeting refurbishment and rental in a price-sensitive market. No flood risk is recorded and council tax is very low (Band A), which reduces running costs while works are completed.
