This three-storey mid-terraced townhouse in Rawcliffe offers flexible living across c.1,076 sq ft. The ground floor is currently configured as a self-contained unit with kitchenette, shower room and sitting/bedroom space — useful as an independent rental, home office or annex for extended family. The main living and dining area sits on the first floor with the principal bedroom and second double on the top floor, giving distinct day and night zones for family life.
Practical features include off-street parking with scope for electric car charging, an attached bike store/garage and a rear lawned garden with patio ideal for children or pets. The property is double glazed, gas central heated (boiler and radiators) and has an EPC rating of D (65) with potential improvement. Built c.1996–2002 and offered freehold, it sits inside the ring road close to parks, schools and commuter links, appealing to families and professionals.
Considerations: the plot and rear garden are modest in size and the house’s three-storey layout may be less convenient for mobility-impaired buyers. The ground-floor self-contained layout is a plus for rental income but could require internal separation or soundproofing depending on intended use. Cosmetic updating would allow buyers to add value and raise the EPC score toward the advertised potential.
Clear positives — proximity to Rawcliffe Country Park, good local schools, low neighbourhood crime and fast broadband — support both owner-occupier comfort and investor appeal. An internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the flexible layout and how the smaller external space will work for your needs.
