This three-bedroom end-terrace on Marsh Street is a straightforward, chain-free purchase suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property offers two reception rooms, a practical kitchen and a four-piece bathroom across a comfortable 1,109 sq ft footprint. Period features such as high skirtings, decorative corbels and a fireplace give character and scope for tasteful restoration.
The house needs modernisation throughout but already benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a low Council Tax band. Accommodation is well-proportioned with a large front lounge and good-sized bedrooms; the compact rear yard offers private outdoor space. The layout and size make the property a realistic project for someone wanting to add value through cosmetic upgrades.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: the property requires renovation, internal decor is dated, and original cavity walls likely have no added insulation. The area is in a deprived ward with constrained local incomes, which can limit long-term rental yields but also keeps entry prices modest. There is no onward chain, which can speed a purchase for the committed buyer.
Overall this is a modestly priced urban terrace with clear potential for uplift after improvement. It’s best suited to a purchaser prepared to invest time and money to modernise, or an investor targeting affordable accommodation in a major town location with good local services and transport links.
