Chain-free three-bed semi with driveway and gardens — ideal for a value-focused buyer.
Chain free sale for quicker completion
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Northwood Avenue is offered with no upward chain, making it suitable for a buyer wanting a straightforward purchase. The property provides practical living space across two storeys: an entrance hall, lounge, separate dining room, fitted kitchen and three bedrooms with a fitted bathroom. Off-street parking, modest front and rear gardens and gas central heating add everyday convenience.
The house dates from the mid-20th century and shows signs of general wear to the exterior and interior; it will suit a buyer prepared to modernise. Construction details suggest system-built walls with limited insulation, so improving thermal performance and updating finishes are likely priorities. The layout and plot size provide scope for incremental refurbishment rather than immediate structural works.
Location is mixed: local shops, bus links and schools are nearby, and broadband is fast, but the wider area faces high deprivation and crime rates above average. Buyers should weigh the lower asking price and very cheap council tax against local social challenges. For first-time buyers or those seeking a value project in a city town setting, the house offers an affordable entry with clear potential once updated.
Viewings are recommended to assess condition and scope for improvement. Essential updates to consider include insulation, cosmetic refurbishment, and checking the age and condition of glazing, heating and roof elements before committing.
