- Double glazing installed post-2002 and mains gas boiler heating

A compact two-bedroom Victorian terrace offered freehold at £130,000, presented as an entry-level buy or straightforward rental. The house has two reception rooms, a galley kitchen with adjoining utility, and a small rear courtyard with gated side access — practical, low-maintenance outdoor space for the size.
The property benefits from period character (front bay window and brick façade), double glazing fitted since 2002, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and a very low council tax band. Its 787 sq ft footprint and central location put shops, schools and town-centre amenities within easy walking distance.
Notable constraints: the area records very high crime levels and very high deprivation; flood risk is medium. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and some internal finishes and services may need updating to modern standards. The plot is small and the rear courtyard offers no substantial garden space.
This is a pragmatic choice for a first-time buyer or investor who prioritises location and affordability over outdoor space and high-spec finishes. Buyers should commission a survey and consider security and flood mitigation measures as part of any purchase decision.
