Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with larger-than-average rear yard
This ground-floor two-bedroom flat on Ashley Road offers a bright, move-in-ready home at an affordable price, well suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking straightforward lettable accommodation. The layout delivers a large front bedroom capable of housing a super‑king bed, a flexible second bedroom for guests or a home office, and a traditional lounge with decorative alcoves and an electric fire that retain period character.
Practical features include a cream shaker-style kitchen with gas hob, a modern bathroom with bath and overhead shower, laminate flooring throughout (carpet in lounge and second bedroom), and a generous rear yard for outdoor use or storage. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators and double glazing is installed (pre-2002).
Important local facts: the property sits in an area of high crime and very high deprivation, and some nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes. The building dates from 1900–1929 and, while presented well, buyers should note older glazing and typical period maintenance may be needed. Council tax is very low and the tenure is freehold, which supports affordability.
Overall this is a practical, well‑priced flat for someone prioritising space, outdoor access and quick move‑in condition. Buyers looking for a long-term family home or a completely modernised property should factor in potential updates and the local area profile when deciding to view.
