3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free Victorian terrace with strong value potential but needs full refurbishment..
Chain-free, freehold Victorian mid-terrace, approx. 840 sqft
Three bedrooms, two receptions, one bathroom — good room layout

Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated — retrofit costs expected
Very deprived area with high local crime — affects resale/rental demand
A traditional Victorian mid-terrace offered chain-free and freehold, presented as a clear renovation opportunity. The house has three bedrooms, two reception rooms and one bathroom across approximately 840 sqft, making it suitable for a first home or a buy-to-let purchase. High ceilings and a bay-windowed living room retain period character and give scope to create light, attractive living space.
Key practical strengths include fast broadband, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and a small yard/garden. There is no flood risk and council tax is very cheap, which lowers ongoing running costs. Local schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding primary, which can appeal to local family buyers.
Material drawbacks are significant and are stated plainly: the property requires modernization throughout, potential roof repairs, and the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated. The area is classified as very deprived with high local crime — factors that will affect resale and rental desirability. Expect refurbishment costs for heating, electrics, and windows if upgrading to modern standards.
Priced at £75,000, this house suits buyers seeking a low-entry purchase to refurbish and add value, or landlords targeting rental income in a low-price area. Budget realistically for renovation and for the implications of the neighbourhood’s socio-economic profile when assessing long-term potential.
