A compact three-bedroom mid-terrace in a convenient Springfield location, this Victorian-built home offers period character and straightforward living space for a first-time buyer or small family. The house sits within walking distance of the town centre, local schools and regular transport links, making daily commuting and errands easy. Low-maintenance gardens front and rear provide private outdoor space without onerous upkeep.
Internally the layout is traditional with a through lounge and separate dining room, a fitted kitchen and a ground-floor bathroom. The property benefits from UPVC double glazing and is advertised with gas central heating; however, some rooms are reported to rely on portable electric heaters, so buyers should confirm the heating system condition and coverage. Constructed around 1900–1929 with solid brick walls, the house will suit purchasers comfortable with older construction and potential insulation upgrades.
Key practical points support ownership: a long lease (around 880 years), nominal ground rent (£5) and no upward chain. The accommodation totals about 797 sq ft, so expect compact rooms rather than expansive living areas. Although well maintained cosmetically, the home would benefit from modernization in parts — replacement/upgrade of some windows and internal finishes could add value and comfort.
In summary, this is a sensible, affordable entry-level purchase in a low-crime, well-connected area. It offers clear scope for modest refurbishment and energy-efficiency improvements, making it appealing to first-time buyers who want a ready-to-live-in base with room to personalise over time.
