Compact affordable home with low-maintenance garden, ideal for first-time buyers.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with two bedrooms and cellar storage
A compact Victorian mid-terrace in Alverthorpe offering two bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen-diner and a useful cellar. The property is freehold and has a low-maintenance enclosed rear garden, double glazing, and a modern-looking kitchen — clear positives for a first purchase or buy-to-let.
The layout is straightforward: living room to the front, open access to the kitchen-diner and stairs to two bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom above. Room sizes are modest; the second bedroom is noticeably smaller and the overall footprint is typical for early 20th-century terraces (approximately 819 sq ft). The cellar provides useful storage or utility space but should be inspected during a viewing.
Practical considerations: the EPC is D68 and the home's solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy performance and heating costs may be higher than newer-build alternatives. The area is classified as very deprived with higher local crime rates — factors to weigh for families or security-conscious buyers. Council tax is low (Band A), and broadband speeds are reported as fast, which will suit remote working or streaming.
This property suits first-time buyers or small households seeking an affordable, centrally placed home with scope to personalise. It will also appeal to investors wanting a lettable terrace near local amenities and transport links. A full internal inspection is recommended to confirm condition and the potential for cosmetic or energy-efficiency improvements.
