A two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering period character and practical living space for a first-time buyer or small family. The property includes two reception rooms, a kitchen, downstairs bathroom and a small rear garden — layout suits everyday living and modest entertaining.
The house sits close to Bearwood and Cape Hill High Street with strong local amenities, good public transport links and several well-rated schools within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, making the home suitable for remote working or study.
The property requires cosmetic updating and some maintenance: dated décor, peeling plaster and an EPC rating of D. The solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy-efficiency upgrades. Crime levels in the area are above average and the wider neighbourhood is classified as deprived, which may influence resale expectations.
Positive value drivers include freehold tenure, low council tax, no flood risk and genuine scope to add value through modernisation. This is a straightforward purchase for a buyer who wants a period home to improve, located in a well-connected urban area.
