This recently renovated three-bedroom mid-terrace offers a practical, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers or young families. The interior benefits from a modern fitted kitchen, contemporary shower room, and double glazing installed after 2002. With 905 sq ft of accommodation arranged over two storeys, the layout includes a lounge, dining area, versatile ground-floor room and useful utility/storage space.
Benefits include freehold tenure, no onward chain and low council tax (Band A), helping to keep running costs down. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, and local primary schools have good Ofsted ratings; secondary options include an outstanding faith school nearby. The property sits within easy reach of shops, bus links and local amenities for everyday convenience.
Buyers should note material considerations: the area is classed as very deprived with above-average crime rates, which may affect resale or rental appetite. The dwelling’s timber-frame walls are listed as partial insulation (assumed) and the Energy Performance Rating is TBC, so further insulation or energy upgrades could be needed. The plot is small and the exterior shows dated cladding that some buyers may want to replace.
Overall this is a competitively priced, newly renovated starter home in a well-connected neighbourhood. It suits purchasers prioritising a ready-to-live-in property with potential to improve energy performance and cosmetic curb appeal over time.
