This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Yvonne Grove offers an accessible entry into the local market with no upward vendor chain and freehold tenure. The house provides generous living space, a good-sized enclosed rear garden and a wide block-paved driveway with off-street parking for multiple vehicles—practical features for families or first-time buyers.
Internally the layout is straightforward: front lounge, spacious dining kitchen, side porch and three bedrooms served by a modern three-piece bathroom. Windows appear double-glazed and the property is ready to occupy but would benefit from light modernisation to maximise comfort and value. There is scope to extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions, which could add space and long-term resale potential.
Location-wise the property sits close to local amenities and transport links, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—suitable for working from home or streaming. Nearby schools include a Good-rated and an Outstanding primary, which supports family living. Be aware the wider area is classified as deprived with an ‘endeavouring social renters’ local profile and average recorded crime levels; buyers should factor local regeneration and demand into their plans.
Practical positives include very low council tax, freehold title, and a decent plot size. Drawbacks are modest: the house likely needs cosmetic updating and any extension would require planning approval. Overall this is a straightforward, chain-free purchase with clear short-term livability and simple scope for improvement or investment.
