A well-preserved Edwardian mid-terrace with genuine period character, offered freehold and ready to occupy. High ceilings, original fireplaces and a bay window with a built-in seat retain authentic charm, while original Minton tiles lie under the hallway carpet awaiting restoration. The two reception rooms flow well for everyday living and socialising.
Practical upgrades include full double glazing and a combi gas boiler installed two years ago, giving immediate warmth and efficiency. The kitchen opens to a large rear garden with patio, mature lawn and established shrubs — a standout outdoor space for family play or summer entertaining. Three generous double bedrooms upstairs offer comfortable sleeping accommodation.
Be realistic about running costs and improvement scope: the house has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, an EPC rating of D and sits in a neighbourhood with above-average crime and wider area deprivation. Parking is on-street only. These factors affect long-term energy bills and may influence some buyers, but the low council tax band and recent boiler are practical offsets.
This property will suit first-time buyers or investors who value period detail and garden space and are willing to carry modest improvement works to boost comfort and value. Families will appreciate proximity to several 'Good' and 'Outstanding' schools and local amenities, with fast broadband and strong mobile signal making it practical for modern life.
