Set on Hawarden Crescent in High Barnes, this neatly presented double-fronted cottage offers versatile 2/3-bedroom accommodation and a compact, low-maintenance exterior. The layout includes an entrance hall, a principal living room (or third bedroom), two further bedrooms, kitchen and a shower room. A small block‑paved front forecourt and rear yard (accessed via an electric roller shutter) provide secure external space.
Practical features include double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is freehold and attractively priced at £144,950 with a low Council Tax Band B. Its Victorian character (bay window, cornicing, feature fireplace) and flexible rooms suit first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home or investors looking for a straightforward buy‑to‑let in a well-connected area.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the EPC is rated E and the wider area shows higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation. The plot is small and there is no private garden beyond the rear yard; on-street parking and visibility of long-distance views are limited. Buyers should verify tenure details and may wish to budget for modest energy-efficiency improvements due to the EPC rating.
Overall this cottage is best for someone prioritising location and versatile living over outdoor space. The presentation is good and internal rooms are of practical size for urban family life or a rental unit; a viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and character.
