Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with gas central heating and double glazing
This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Wade Street offers a compact, affordable entry into Burslem’s housing market. The property is freehold, gas-heated and double-glazed, with a practical layout comprising lounge, dining room, fitted kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and two double bedrooms. A small enclosed rear yard provides private outdoor space.
Presented as an ideal first-time purchase or buy-to-let, the house sits close to local amenities, schools and commuter links. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as good, supporting working-from-home or tenant demand. There is no upward chain, which can simplify and speed up a sale.
Internally the home shows dated decoration and basic fittings typical of mid-20th century updates. Rooms are modest in size and will benefit from modernisation to realise rental yield or resale value. The surrounding area scores as very deprived, and local classification indicates a high proportion of private renting and new arrivals — factors that affect long-term capital growth and occupant mix.
Buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and the need for a thorough survey; services and appliances have not been tested. For someone seeking a low-cost entry, renovation project or an investor targeting rental income, this property represents clear potential but requires hands-on improvement and realistic expectations about the neighbourhood.
