Well-presented two-bedroom home with large garden and garage, no upward chain.
Bay-fronted lounge with feature fireplace and built-in storage
This attractively presented two-bedroom semi-detached house on St Gabriel’s Estate offers immediate vacant possession and no upward chain, making it well suited to first-time buyers or those seeking a manageable family starter home. The ground floor has a generous bay-fronted lounge and an 18ft kitchen/diner with French doors leading to a large, mainly lawned rear garden — good indoor-outdoor flow and scope to extend (subject to planning).
Practical positives include a garage, double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property sits on a long lease (900 years) with a very low ground rent and modest council tax band B, which reduces ongoing running costs.
Be clear about the local context: the wider area is mainly blue-collar terraces and recorded crime levels are high, so buyers should factor that into location decisions. The house dates from the 1930s and has cavity walls (no known added insulation), so there is potential to improve energy efficiency. Prospective purchasers should verify services, lease details and any planning options before exchange.
