A bright, three-double-bedroom Victorian terrace arranged over two floors, this Dover Road home blends period character with contemporary convenience. The living room’s bay window, high ceilings and decorative fireplace complement a modern fitted kitchen and two reception rooms that have been opened up to create sociable family space. At about 1,097 sq ft, the layout feels compact but well arranged for first-time buyers or couples wanting room to grow.
Practical features include a ground-floor shower room plus an upstairs family bathroom, an east-facing low-maintenance rear garden with side access and storage, plus freehold tenure and no forward chain for a quicker move. Council Tax Band C and fast broadband/mobiles add everyday convenience for work and study.
Be realistic about the location: the property sits in a predominantly blue-collar, constrained-renter neighbourhood. Local indicators show average crime and wider area deprivation, which may affect longer-term capital growth compared with more affluent pockets. The plot is modest and the terraced footprint limits extension potential without planning.
Overall this is a sensible, well-presented starter home or buy-to-let opportunity in Baffins, with modern fixtures and sensible running costs. Viewings will suit buyers prioritising convenient access to local shops, schools and transport, plus a ready-to-move-in interior without a lengthy chain.
