A rare chain-free opportunity on Main Street, this sizeable three-bedroom end-terrace combines a former newsagents retail unit with a substantial residential footprint. The shop area (approx 9.0m x 3.96m) and double garage with separate workshop add clear commercial or income potential, while fitted solar panels help reduce running costs.
The house offers generous rooms throughout (approx 1,970 sqft) including a large front living room, dining room, extended kitchen and sizable utility. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom; the master is large with built-in storage. Practical extras include UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating and easy access to local schools, public transport and neighbouring towns.
Important considerations: the property sits in a deprived, blue-collar terrace area where local crime levels are above average. The building dates from the early 20th century and exterior walls are assumed uninsulated — the EPC is grade D and some updating/modernisation is likely required. The plot is small and outdoor space is limited.
For investors or buyers seeking flexible use, this freehold offers multiple routes: retain and operate the retail unit, convert the shop into additional living space, or split/let commercial and residential parts. The low asking price and no onward chain make it practical for those prepared to carry out refurbishment works.
