This Victorian mid-terrace on Victoria Avenue offers a roomy first home or buy-to-let in Redfield, a short walk from Church Road’s independent shops and Lawrence Hill station. The house keeps many period details — a bayed living room, high ceilings and decorative brickwork — while providing practical updates such as double glazing and gas central heating.
Inside are two full-width double bedrooms and a generous kitchen-diner that creates flexible living and dining space. The footprint and room sizes are favourable for first-time buyers seeking space to grow, or investors after a straightforward rental layout. The property is freehold and council tax is very low, which helps running costs.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The mid-terrace sits on a small plot with a modest courtyard garden and on-street parking only. The house’s solid brick walls were built pre-1930 and are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs or future upgrade work. Crime levels in the area are above average; prospective buyers should factor local safety and security measures into their plans.
Overall this is a characterful, well-proportioned Victorian home in an accessible urban neighbourhood. It suits someone who values period features and space over a large garden, and who is comfortable planning modest improvement works to improve energy performance or personalise the finish.
