This stone-built, chain-free end terrace offers a compact, practical home for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The layout is traditional and easy to use: an entrance vestibule leads to a naturally bright lounge, a kitchen with integrated hob and oven, and a narrow sunroom that opens onto a small enclosed rear garden. Two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom sit on the first floor.
Built before 1900, the house retains period character in the façade and exposed stone in the sunroom, but it also shows limitations typical of older terraces. Walls are assumed uninsulated and the double glazing was fitted before 2002, so there is potential to improve thermal performance and reduce running costs. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, chain-free sale, very cheap council tax, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is in a convenient location for local schools, buses and amenities, making it an easy commute and suitable as a rental. The small plot and modest room sizes mean it’s best suited to first-time buyers, a small family, or an investor seeking a straightforward rental property.
Buyers should budget for targeted upgrades (wall insulation, possible window replacements and modernising finishes) if aiming to improve energy efficiency and long-term value. Overall, this is a no-surprise, characterful terrace with clear potential for modest refurbishment and immediate occupation.
