Chain-free Victorian terraced renovation with new roof and strong uplift potential.
- Victorian bay-fronted mid-terrace with high ceilings and ornate coving
- New roof recently installed
- Chain free sale; freehold tenure
- Needs new kitchen and bathroom; full refurbishment required
- Underpinning to rear/side kitchen completed in 2013 (paperwork available)
- Solid brick walls with no insulation (assumed) — retrofit costs likely
- Small east-facing garden, mainly hardstanding and overgrown
- Area: deprived local profile; crime average, good broadband and mobile signal
A bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace with strong upside for a buyer who can take on a refurbishment. The property is chain free, sits on a quiet street with Greenbank Cemetery at the end of the road, and benefits from a newly replaced roof and retained period features such as high ceilings, ornate coving and a spacious bay reception.
The house requires a new kitchen and bathroom and general redecoration; the listing describes worn finishes and some damp in areas. Walls are original solid brick with no insulation (assumed), so buyers should factor in potential thermal upgrade costs. Underpinning to the rear and side kitchen walls was completed and signed off in 2013 (paperwork available at offer stage).
Accommodation is generous for a two-bedroom terrace: two reception rooms, a large first-floor bathroom and a particularly large front bedroom. The plot is small with an east-facing garden currently mainly hardstanding and overgrown beds. Practical points: double glazing fitted since 2002, mains gas boiler and radiators, freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Location is a significant draw: quiet, characterful streets in Greenbank/Easton with good local amenities and transport links. The surrounding area is relatively deprived and crime is average, so buyers should weigh community potential against local socio-economic factors. This is a straightforward value-add project for an investor or buyer wanting to restore period charm and capture stronger resale value in this road.
