This Victorian mid-terrace offers a practical two-bedroom layout across approximately 945 sq ft, with a long 22ft reception room and a 14ft fitted kitchen. The house is presented in good order with gas central heating, double glazing throughout and a west-facing fully enclosed garden, making it ready to move into for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking immediate rental potential.
The accommodation benefits from a modern shower room, useful lobby with garden access, and a private rear garden of about 30ft with a low-maintenance shingle finish. The reception room’s open-plan flow into the kitchen and the natural light from large windows give a comfortable, airy feel to the ground floor living space.
Practical considerations are clear: the property sits in an area with above-average crime and local deprivation, and the plot is small. While well presented internally, the building retains typical Victorian proportions and may suit purchasers who prefer a traditional terrace rather than a large contemporary footprint. Prospective buyers should note the property is freehold and council tax is low, which helps running costs.
Location is strong for commuters and city living: local schools rated Good are within walking distance, and nearby amenities include shops, a train station and leisure facilities. For those seeking a straightforward, compact home or an investment with easy tenant appeal, this house offers a solid, low-fuss proposition.
