This well-presented three-bedroom end-terrace offers a ready-to-move-in layout that will suit first-time buyers or young families. The house benefits from a modern fitted kitchen, a spacious reception room with French doors to a private south-facing tiered garden, and off-street parking for two vehicles. A new energy-efficient boiler (with around 10 years warranty remaining) and HIVE smart heating add practical savings and convenience.
Accommodation is compact but well laid out across two floors: entrance hall with ground-floor WC, kitchen to the front, living room to the rear, and three bedrooms plus a stylish four-piece bathroom upstairs. The loft is full-height and boarded for useful storage or future conversion potential (subject to checks). Double glazing and cavity wall construction help with insulation.
Location and running costs are notable positives: ultrafast broadband, excellent mobile signal and low council tax band make day-to-day life easier. However, the property sits in an area with high crime levels and pronounced local deprivation; buyers should consider local conditions and seek local visits at different times of day. The house and plot are modest in size and best suited to buyers needing efficient family accommodation rather than expansive living space.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance home offering sensible running costs and immediate occupation. It represents a realistic entry point onto the ladder or a straightforward rental proposition for investors who accept the area’s socio-economic challenges.
