A stone-built Victorian semi in Upper Eastville, offered chain-free and ready for a buyer to add modern touches. The house keeps period character — bay window and traditional proportions — while providing a flexible layout with two double bedrooms plus a separate office room.
Upstairs and downstairs present straightforward accommodation: open-plan lounge/diner to the front, kitchen at the rear and a private rear garden accessed via the side. Gas central heating and double glazing are already installed; the property’s generous overall size and 1,004 sq ft footprint give scope for reconfiguration or improving finishes.
Important factual points to consider: the property is on solid brick walls with no known wall insulation (assumed), and some décor and fittings will need updating. The plot is small and the neighbourhood records higher crime levels and significant local deprivation — buyers should factor this into safety, insurance and renovation planning. Council tax is inexpensive and transport links plus Eastville Park are immediate lifestyle advantages.
For first-time buyers wanting a character home near green space, this house offers a practical, affordable entry with potential to add value through targeted modernisation. It suits someone prepared to invest time and budget into improving insulation, cosmetic finishes and security to realise the property’s full potential.
