3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful terrace with loft bedroom, garden potential and good local amenities.
Three bedrooms including loft conversion increases usable living space
Two reception rooms; compact, narrow rooms typical of terraces
Larger-than-average rear garden; potential for development (PP required)
Modern-style shower room; some contemporary upgrades already fitted
Double glazing and gas central heating present for immediate comfort
Solid-brick walls (no insulation assumed) — consider thermal upgrades
EPC D and high local crime rate — factor into running costs and insurance
Council tax very cheap (low ongoing property tax liability)
This Victorian mid-terrace combines period character with practical updates: a loft conversion creating a third bedroom and a modern-style shower room. Two reception rooms and a compact kitchen give flexible living space for a first-time buyer or small family. The property benefits from double glazing and gas central heating for everyday comfort.
The rear garden is described as larger than average and offers scope for external improvement or possible development, subject to relevant planning permission. Internally the layout is efficiently planned but rooms are generally narrow — typical of terrace stock — and cosmetic updating to the kitchen and some rooms would increase appeal and value.
Important practical points: the house is solid-brick Victorian (likely no cavity insulation), has an EPC rating D, and sits in a high-crime local area — factors buyers should weigh alongside the low council-tax cost. This home suits buyers seeking character with scope to add value, or investors targeting strong local rental demand from students and professionals.
