4 bed 1 bath Link Detached House
1930s four-bed family house with garden and parking, ideal to modernise for value.
- Four bedrooms plus versatile fifth reception/bedroom
- About 1,297 sq ft of living space
- Decent private rear garden and off-street parking
- 1930s solid-brick character; bay windows present
- Bathroom and kitchen dated; needs modernization
- Double glazing installed before 2002; likely poor thermal performance
- Area: very deprived with high local crime rate
This solid 1930s link-detached house offers flexible family living across two storeys with four bedrooms and a versatile fifth reception/bedroom. At about 1,297 sq ft the layout includes two reception rooms, a ground-floor WC and a private rear garden with off-street parking to the front. Good local schools and regular public transport make it a practical choice for families and commuters.
The property retains period character — bay windows, red brick elevations and standard ceiling heights — but requires modernization throughout. The bathroom and kitchen are dated, double glazing was installed before 2002, and the walls are likely uninsulated solid brick. The main heating is gas boiler and radiators; the house is freehold and council tax is affordable.
Buyers should note material contextual drawbacks: the wider area is very deprived with a high local crime rate, which may affect suitability for some purchasers. Conversely the plot is decent, there’s scope to modernise or extend (subject to checks), and the house sits close to shops, schools rated Good, and strong transport links — features that support family living or future value uplift after refurbishment.
Overall this house suits a family or purchaser seeking a period property to update. It offers immediate occupancy with straightforward gas central heating and parking, but expect refurbishment costs to bring kitchens, bathrooms, glazing and insulation up to modern standards.
