This ground-floor two-bedroom flat sits within a Victorian terrace and offers simple, low-maintenance living with a private courtyard garden. The long lease (962 years) and chain-free status reduce purchase friction, making the property well suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry or investors targeting rental income.
The layout includes an entrance hallway, reception room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Rooms are compact and practical; the building’s period exterior provides character while internal updating would improve comfort and value—refurbishment potential is clear. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for working from home or attracting tenants.
Location is convenient for everyday needs with nearby shops, bus links and several primary and secondary schools rated Good. Council tax is very low, helping running costs. Buyers should note the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates; this will affect rental demand and resale appeal and should be considered alongside the affordable price.
The tenure is leasehold with no ground rent or service charge review period noted. Suitable for a buyer wanting a budget-friendly home to personalise, or an investor prepared to manage lettings and local area challenges.
