This substantial four-bedroom end-of-terrace home combines Victorian character with practical modern updates across three floors. A welcoming vestibule and bright hallway lead to a bay-fronted lounge with a feature wood-burning stove, a recently installed breakfasting kitchen with integrated appliances, and a handy utility room with direct access to the integrated garage and rear garden.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, a dining room that can serve as a fourth bedroom, plus a study/dressing room and a four-piece family bathroom. Oak stairs, newly fitted carpets on the upper landing and generous ceiling heights reinforce the period feel while the updated kitchen and usable garage add everyday convenience.
Outside the plot is a genuine asset: a large, mature rear garden with elevated paved terrace and driveway accessed via two electric gates. Practical positives (garage, drive, excellent mobile and fast broadband) sit beside clear cost considerations: the property is freehold but council tax is described as quite expensive and the wider area shows signs of deprivation. Some parts of the house present restoration potential rather than a finished turnkey finish, so buyers should allow budget for updating and ongoing maintenance.
