Two-car private driveway to front — rare local convenience

This chain-free mid-terrace townhouse offers a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance home close to major routes. The ground floor provides a spacious lounge-diner and a modern kitchen with direct access to a fully flagged, enclosed rear garden — ideal for easy upkeep. A two-car private driveway to the front is an uncommon convenience in the area.
Upstairs are two good-sized double bedrooms and a large, fully tiled shower room. The home benefits from PVCu double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, and the compact 655 sq ft layout is typical of homes built in the late 1960s–70s. Council tax is very cheap, and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong — useful for remote-working buyers.
Notable drawbacks are plain: the plot is small, external areas may need attention, and the immediate area records higher-than-average crime levels. The property’s mid-terrace form and era of construction mean buyers should expect standard maintenance typical of homes from 1967–1975. Overall, this property is a practical, affordable option for a first purchase or rental investment, with excellent motorway access to the M1 and M62 and local schools and amenities within walking distance.
