A compact Victorian mid-terrace with characterful details and no onward chain — suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The house offers two double bedrooms, a cellar for storage and a small courtyard garden, all within easy reach of Abington Park and local amenities.
The interior is liveable but dated: a traditional galley kitchen, separate reception rooms with double doors and original features throughout. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), so further investment in heating and insulation would improve comfort and running costs.
This freehold home rewards buyers prepared to update finishes and services. Modernisation could create open-plan living and better energy efficiency, while the cellar provides practical storage or potential utility space. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to good schools and shops add everyday convenience.
Notable negatives are the dated kitchen and living spaces, reliance on electric room heaters, likely lack of wall insulation, and the area’s above-average crime rate. These are factual considerations for mortgage lenders, insurers and purchasers planning refurbishment.
