Steeped in period character and occupied by one family for over 80 years, this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase within walking distance of Coventry city centre. The house has two reception rooms, gas central heating and double glazing — practical features that suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate rental potential.
Rooms are compact but useable across 621 sq ft: a front and rear reception, a small kitchen with basic appliances, two bedrooms and a tiled bathroom. The property is solid-brick Victorian stock with original sash-style windows and typical mid-terrace proportions; it will reward modest updating and cosmetic modernisation.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the walls are original solid brick with no known cavity insulation, décor and fittings are dated, and the layout reflects a traditional, compact terrace rather than modern open-plan living. The neighbourhood is in a deprived area classification with average local crime levels, though mobile signal and broadband speeds are reported as very good.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, very low council tax and proximity to good local schools, shops and public transport. For a purchaser prepared to refresh interiors and consider energy improvements, this property represents an affordable route into CV1 or an accessible rental opportunity close to the city centre.
