This two-bedroom Victorian terrace combines period character with practical modern upgrades, making it an appealing choice for first-time buyers seeking a manageable, move-in-ready home. The property retains original features such as stripped floors and traditional façade while offering contemporary comforts including double glazing and a modern combi boiler.
Ground-floor accommodation includes two reception rooms and a fitted kitchen with an adjoining utility room, giving flexibility for home working and everyday living. The compact south-facing courtyard provides outdoor space for morning sun and low-maintenance gardening. Upstairs are two good double bedrooms and a family bathroom with both a bath and a walk-in shower cubicle.
Recent substantial works — a completely new roof, rebuilt chimney stack and a partly boarded loft with new access — reduce immediate maintenance concerns and add long-term value. Practical benefits include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low Council Tax (Band A), helping running costs stay modest.
Be aware of material considerations: the mid-terrace was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, so heating bills and draughts may be higher than newer builds. The plot is small and rooms are on the compact side, so space-conscious buyers should view in person. The neighbourhood is classified as an area of higher deprivation with a predominantly private-renting population, which may affect local footfall and long-term community change.
