Tidy three-bedroom mid-terrace in a quiet cul-de-sac, well placed for Stevenage town centre and the mainline station (approx. 23 minutes to London Kings Cross). Internally the house is functional and neutrally presented with a modern fitted kitchen/diner, bright lounge with patio doors and a recently fitted combination boiler. The layout suits a small family, first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward accommodation with immediate occupancy potential.
The property occupies a small plot with low-maintenance rear lawn, outside power and a useful powered storage room. At about 831 sq ft the room sizes are average: two good-sized bedrooms plus a smaller third bedroom; the ground floor includes a downstairs WC which adds practical flexibility. Double glazing and gas central heating provide reasonable energy performance (EPC current 65, potential 83).
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The exterior has a dated post‑war brick façade and would benefit from cosmetic updating to increase kerb appeal. The local area scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics — important for families and investors to factor into affordability and yield calculations. The plot is small and outdoor space is modest.
For a purchaser looking to add value, there is clear potential through external improvements and sympathetic internal upgrades; for an investor the property’s proximity to transport links and fast broadband supports steady rental demand. Freehold tenure, no flood risk and affordable council tax are further practical strengths.
