This compact two-bedroom mid-terraced house offers an affordable entry into Melksham with low-maintenance exterior and private rear garden. The layout is straightforward: a front lounge with feature fireplace, rear kitchen with garden access, two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. Allocated parking for two cars opposite the property adds practical convenience for owners and renters.
The property is best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors who value location and solid fundamentals over luxury finishes. The construction is modern with filled cavity walls and double glazing; the current EPC rating sits around C. Practical positives include a small manageable plot, shed storage, very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for home working.
Buyers should be aware of some clear trade-offs. Heating is by electric storage heaters which can be more expensive to run than gas; internal decor and fixtures are basic and would benefit from updating to improve comfort and value. Room sizes and the overall footprint are modest, so this will suit those seeking compact, economical accommodation rather than a larger family home.
With straightforward maintenance requirements and scope to add value through targeted modernisation (kitchen, bathroom, heating), the house represents a practical, low-risk purchase in a quiet suburban setting. Freehold tenure, allocated parking and proximity to local schools and amenities make it an attractive option for a first home or rental purchase.
