This two-bedroom mid‑terrace Edwardian house on Gelli Road offers an affordable, characterful entry into homeownership with scope to add value. The property is presented as move‑in ready with an open-plan lounge/diner, oak kitchen with integrated appliances, and a low‑maintenance rear patio garden with useful outbuilding storage. Two front-facing double bedrooms and the existing layout (formerly three bedrooms) give practical everyday space and easy potential to reinstate a third bedroom.
Practical comforts include gas central heating, a modern combi boiler, and double glazing. The interior retains period features such as a marble arch fireplace and fitted storage, while the bathroom is a compact, contemporary wetroom with quality fittings. Recent upgrades to internal finishes mean new buyers can inhabit immediately and personalise over time.
Buyers should note important constraints: the house is in a very deprived wider area and local classification indicates social‑renter neighbourhoods. The stone walls are assumed uninsulated and the double glazing was fitted before 2002, so further energy improvements (insulation, window upgrades) may be needed to cut bills. The exterior is described as unkempt and will need attention. Tenure and council tax band are not provided and should be confirmed.
Overall, this property suits first‑time buyers wanting an affordable starter home with room to improve and convert back to three bedrooms. It will appeal to purchasers who value location, view potential, and are comfortable investing modestly in energy efficiency and external maintenance to increase long‑term value.
