This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Thimbler Road offers straightforward space and strong rental potential close to Warwick University and Canley station. At just under 1,000 sq ft with two reception rooms, a ground-floor cloakroom and a decent rear garden, it suits first-time buyers or landlords seeking a let-near-university opportunity.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and off-street parking. The house is freehold and in Council Tax Band A, which keeps ongoing charges low. The layout lends itself to modest updating or a targeted refurbishment to increase value or rental income.
Buyers should note this is a non-standard construction property with an EPC rating of D and assumed uninsulated system-built walls. The exterior and some internal finishes are dated and will need maintenance or improvement. Because of the construction type, mortgage lenders may impose restrictions — please confirm lending options early.
The area is a busy, cosmopolitan neighbourhood popular with students and new private renters; crime levels are reported as very high, so factor security and management into any rental plan. For purchasers wanting a practical, well-located home or an investment with uplift potential after refurbishment, this property offers clear upside once essential checks and necessary works are addressed.
