This Victorian three-bedroom terraced home blends period character with ready-to-use modern comforts. The property is chain free, with three double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen, and a notably stylish bathroom featuring a roll-top bath and separate shower. High ceilings, decorative coving and original fireplaces give the living spaces strong period appeal.
Externally there is a small town-style front garden and an enclosed rear courtyard with block paving and a hardstanding that can be used for off-street parking. The house is freehold, has double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, so it is reasonably efficient for its age.
Buyers should note material local and property details: the surrounding area has high crime levels and very high deprivation, and the plot is small. The cavity walls are recorded as “as built” with no insulation (assumed), which may mean additional costs to upgrade thermal performance. Council Tax Band B keeps running costs relatively low.
This home will suit someone wanting a character property they can live in straight away, while carrying out cosmetic or energy-efficiency improvements over time. Its central location offers very good access to shops, transport links and local amenities, making it practical for everyday life or for purchasers considering rental potential in a private-renting neighbourhood.
