This recently renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace on Furlong Road offers move-in readiness with contemporary fixtures and neutral décor. Upgrades completed February 2025 include a new boiler, full electrical rewire and mains smoke/heat alarms, giving practical peace of mind for purchasers. The layout provides two reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and a useful cellar for storage or workspace.
Outside, the rear lawned garden and brick-built store give outdoor space and useful storage — a rare plus for terraces of this era. The property is freehold and chain-free, making it suitable for first-time buyers wanting a straightforward purchase or investors seeking a turn-key let in a location close to schools, shops, transport and local services.
Buyers should note the wider area is classified as very deprived and the immediate neighbourhood is predominantly working-class; this affects long-term capital-growth prospects. The house is of solid-brick Victorian construction with no known cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs unless insulation improvements are carried out. The property is reportedly not yet registered at the Land Registry — your conveyancer will need to regularise this during purchase.
Overall, this is a practical, well-finished starter home or rental unit that removes many common renovation headaches thanks to recent safety and mechanical works. If you prioritise ready-to-live-in condition, low council tax and a convenient local location, this property is worth a viewing.
