A freehold, two-bedroom mid-terrace offered with a tenant in situ — straightforward for a buy-to-let investor seeking immediate rental income. The layout includes a bay-front lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, and bathroom, plus a small rear yard. The property is large in overall size but has a compact internal footprint typical of period terraced houses.
The building retains traditional solid-brick construction and double glazing installed post-2002. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators. Council tax and running costs are low; broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical benefits for tenants and quick lettings in this market.
Material considerations: the area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime and a transitional Eastern European neighbourhood profile. The house appears to have limited wall insulation (solid brick, assumed no insulation) and will benefit from further refurbishment to maximise rental value. Sold with tenant in situ, so viewings and vacant possession will require tenancy management.
This is a clear income-focused opportunity: buy-to-let investors willing to accept local area challenges and carry modest upgrade works can secure immediate rent and a low-maintenance brick property with period character and future revaluation potential.
