This two-bedroom mid-terrace on Manning Road is a practical, chain-free starter home with useful extras for everyday living. The ground floor offers a generous living/dining room, a fitted kitchen with adjoining utility and a conservatory that opens onto a low-maintenance rear patio — a straightforward layout that suits first-time buyers or commuters needing easy upkeep and off-street parking.
Both bedrooms are doubles with built-in storage, and the property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a decent-sized plot for the area. The home’s 1950s–60s construction is typical for the neighbourhood and presents scope to add personal finishes without major structural work. Broadband speeds are fast and local schools nearby have good Ofsted ratings.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime and a significant rental/tenant population. That brings potential for buy-to-let interest but also warrants practical security measures and realistic expectations about resale premium. The house is compact (about 833 sq ft) and best suited to first-time buyers, downsizers or investor landlords aware of the local market dynamics.
Overall, this property offers a low-maintenance, well-arranged home in a convenient location close to shops, transport and the seafront. It’s a sensible purchase for anyone seeking a move-in-ready base with room to improve décor and add value over time.
