This three-bedroom mid-terrace on Walsingham Road presents a clear investment or DIY renovation opportunity. The house includes driveway parking, front and rear gardens, and a bay-fronted living room that benefits from good natural light. Its layout — entrance hall, living/dining room, rear kitchen, three upstairs bedrooms, family bathroom plus separate WC — is practical and familiar to many renters or buyers.
Important: the property is constructed with Easiform (non-standard concrete) methods. This can limit mortgage options and may require specialist surveys and lender agreements. The façade and many interior fittings are dated; visible maintenance and modernisation will be needed to maximise value or rental income.
Location strengths include proximity to several ‘Good’ primary and secondary schools, local shops, bus routes and strong mobile and broadband connectivity. The area is classified as very deprived with high crime levels, which affects tenant profile, resale considerations and rental yields — factor this into letting strategy or refurbishment budget.
For buyers able to manage the Easiform implications and local challenges, the property offers upside: straightforward room layout, low-maintenance garden, off-street parking and an affordable freehold price point. Suitable approaches include a light-to-medium refurbishment to improve tenancy appeal or a longer-term value-add programme targeting modern finishes and security improvements.
