Bright two-bedroom opportunity near schools and shops, ideal starter or buy-to-let.
- Two well-proportioned bedrooms, ideal for a small family or sharers
- Modern kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate refurbishment work
- Private rear garden; small plot and manageable outdoor space
- Compact overall size (approx. 581 sqft) suits first-time buyers
- Electric room heaters only; heating and energy efficiency are limited
- Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated; insulation likely needed
- Double glazing installed before 2002; may be due for upgrade
- Local area: very high crime and broader deprivation to consider
This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a practical, affordable entry into Swindon’s sought-after Old Town. The living room retains period character and good natural light, while a modern kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate refurbishment costs. A private rear garden and freehold tenure add straightforward appeal for first-time buyers.
The house is small (approx. 581 sqft) and best suited to buyers seeking a manageable home or an investor targeting the rental market. Key savings include very low council tax and no flood risk. Nearby schools, shops and frequent bus links put everyday essentials within easy reach.
Buyers should note some clear maintenance and energy-efficiency drawbacks: heating is by electric room heaters, walls are solid brick with no known insulation, and the double glazing was installed before 2002. The area shows high local crime rates and broader deprivation indicators, so purchasers should factor this into security and long-term value considerations.
At the listed price this property presents a sensible starter home or a renovation/investment project for someone prepared to improve insulation, heating and cosmetic elements to boost comfort and yield.
