Chain-free city home with gardens and strong rental potential near universities.
Chain-free mid-terrace on freehold title
Three bedrooms with separate lounge and dining room
Fitted kitchen; gas central heating and double glazing
Small front and rear gardens for outdoor use
Built 1900–1929; solid brick walls, no cavity insulation
Requires some updating—flooring and cosmetic work needed
EPC D; modest running costs but not energy-efficient
High local crime and area deprivation may affect resale/rent
This compact, chain-free mid-terrace offers practical city living close to transport links, shops and several schools. The layout includes a fitted kitchen, lounge, dining room and three bedrooms across two floors — a sensible arrangement for a first-time buyer or landlord seeking straightforward rental income.
Gas central heating and double glazing are already fitted, and the property benefits from small front and rear gardens for outdoor space. At 798 sq ft, the house is efficient to run and sits on a freehold title, reducing ongoing tenure complexity.
The home was built circa 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and no added cavity insulation; some internal updating is needed, including flooring in places. The area is described as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with high local crime rates and wider area deprivation — factors to weigh for family living or rental yield assumptions.
EPC rating D and a compact plot mean running costs and refurbishment scope are moderate. The property presents a clear opportunity for someone seeking an affordable entry into the city market or a buy-to-let purchase, provided any investor budgets for cosmetic improvement and considers location-related rental variance.
