This two-bedroom mid-terrace stone home offers an affordable, ready-to-live-in option in New Kyo with no upper chain. The lounge with a feature fireplace and a modern kitchen/diner give the house immediate day-to-day comfort, while full uPVC double glazing and a gas combi boiler keep running costs modest. Council Tax band A and freehold tenure add to its low-cost appeal.
The ground floor layout suits a first-time buyer or small family seeking compact, manageable accommodation. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a practical bathroom; the rear enclosed yard gives private outdoor space without the upkeep of a garden. Broadband and mobile coverage are excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Buyers should be aware of material and location factors: the EPC is rated E (51) and the solid stone walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, which may limit energy efficiency and could require improvement works. The property sits in a very deprived area with above-average crime statistics and lies within a former mining area — these factors may affect resale or rental values and insurance costs.
Overall, this is a straightforward, low-cost freehold house with clear potential for improvement. It will particularly suit first-time buyers, cash buyers or investors prepared to accept the local market context and consider energy-efficiency upgrades.
