Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this modern two-bedroom semi offers a practical, well-presented home for first-time buyers or small families. The lounge flows into an open-plan dining kitchen with direct garden access, and a downstairs cloakroom adds useful convenience. The property is freehold, gas-heated with radiators, and fitted with double glazing (install date unknown). At around 722 sq ft the accommodation is compact but efficiently laid out.
A standout is the two-storey outbuilding/workshop and the adaptable garden room to the rear — ideal for a home office, studio, gym, or extra entertainment space. The current layout offers two generous double bedrooms but can be returned to a three-bedroom arrangement if desired, adding flexibility and rental or resale appeal. Off-street parking is provided by a driveway and there are front and rear gardens that need only basic landscaping to maximise outdoor use.
Buyers should consider the local context: the area records higher crime levels and sits within a very deprived neighbourhood, which may affect long-term price growth and personal security considerations. Council tax is very cheap and broadband and mobile signals are strong, which supports home-working and connectivity. The property was built around 1976–82; buyers should allow for typical medium-term maintenance and potential updates (eg. confirmed glazing ages, ongoing boiler servicing).
Overall this is a practical, versatile home with immediate move-in appeal and clear options to increase space or rental value. It will suit first-time purchasers, small families, or investors looking for a manageable freehold property with useful outbuilding potential.
