This end-of-terrace property offers generous living space across approx. 897 sq ft, with a 23ft lounge/dining room and a long, private 59ft rear garden — rare for this street. Built-in kitchen appliances, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing mean the house is liveable now, while the layout suits a first home or rental investment. The freehold tenure and practical outbuilding add useful flexibility for storage or a workshop.
The house is a period build (c.1900–1929) with pebble-dash exterior and solid brick walls. There is clear potential to modernise and add value, but buyers should budget for cosmetic refurbishment and possible thermal upgrades, as the walls are assumed uninsulated. The roof shows signs of wear and the capped chimney means the decorative gas fire cannot be used until investigated.
Practical considerations are stated plainly: crime levels in the area are above average and nearby secondary schooling has mixed Ofsted outcomes, so this location will suit buyers prioritising affordability and garden size over quiet or top-rated schools. Council tax is very low, broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the property sits close to local amenities and transport links — convenient for commuting or local work.
Overall, the house is a solid starter or investment purchase for someone happy to carry out targeted improvements. The strengths are the scale of the reception space and long garden; the main drawbacks are the need for some maintenance, potential insulation works, and local area crime statistics.
