A practical two-bedroom end-terrace offered chain-free and freehold, suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers. The ground floor offers an open-plan living/dining area with a feature fireplace that flows to an extended kitchen and a small conservatory-style space, providing useful extra light and utility. Upstairs are two modest bedrooms and a family bathroom; the overall footprint is compact (about 775 sq ft) and straightforward to maintain.
The property is structurally typical of mid‑20th century builds with double glazing and mains gas central heating. EPC rating C indicates reasonable energy performance, though the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and further insulation or cosmetic improvements would add comfort and long‑term value. The small front and rear gardens require low upkeep, and there is off-street parking to the front — a practical benefit in a dense neighbourhood.
Be candid about the local context: the area is classified as very deprived with higher local crime rates and Industrious Transitions/Challenged White Communities typology. Buyers should factor in the neighbourhood profile when considering resale or rental yield. The location does offer convenience — local shops, schools (including well-rated primaries nearby), parks and good road links — making it an accessible choice for commuters.
Overall this is a budget-friendly entry property with clear potential after modest cosmetic updating and insulation work. It will suit buyers seeking an affordable, manageable home now, or investors targeting straightforward rental demand; however, budget realistically for neighbourhood-related considerations and planned improvements.
