Chain-free two-bed period semi with parking and garden — scope to modernise and add value.
Chain-free freehold two-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house
A deceptively spacious two-bedroom Victorian semi with parking and a decent rear garden, offered chain-free on freehold tenure. The house has gas central heating, double glazing and a flexible layout including a sitting room, dining room, ground-floor playroom/study and a wet room. Its size and parking make it practical for first-time buyers or small families wanting straightforward, affordable accommodation.
The property shows period character but is visibly tired: the exterior and garden are overgrown and in need of maintenance, and some internal fittings are dated (kitchen, bathroom). The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the glazing was installed before 2002; the EPC is D. These are realistic improvement areas that also present clear potential to add value through targeted upgrading.
Location is a practical selling point: Sutton Bridge has local shops, schools (including a highly rated primary nearby), a new health centre and regular bus links to larger towns. Flood risk is low and council tax is very cheap, helping running costs remain low. Note the area records above-average crime and local deprivation indicators, which may concern some buyers.
Overall this is a straightforward, chain-free purchase for a buyer prepared to refresh cosmetic elements and consider insulation or energy upgrades. It offers immediate liveability with scope for improvement and potential value uplift after modest renovation.
