This chain-free, freehold Victorian mid-terrace offers a compact two-bedroom layout suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The house has been maintained over the years and presents a ready-to-move-in canvas for buyers who want to add personal improvements rather than undertake full renovation.
Located within easy walking distance of Houldsworth Square and Broadstone Mill, the property benefits from local shops, pubs, eateries and good transport links. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the house practical for commuting and modern living. The rear garden is low-maintenance with alley access and views of Houldsworth Mill’s roof and chimney.
Internally there is a front living room, kitchen/diner with ample base units and space for a table, large front double bedroom, smaller rear single bedroom and a three-piece bathroom. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; the property has double glazing (installation date unknown) and cavity walls with filled cavity insulation. Council tax is noted as very cheap, which reduces running costs.
Buyers should note the surrounding area is classified as hampered aspiration with higher deprivation indicators. Several nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes, including some rated ‘Requires improvement’ and one ‘Inadequate’. The house sits on a small plot with modest room sizes, so it’s best suited to buyers seeking an affordable starter home or an investor targeting rental demand rather than those needing large family space. Some cosmetic updating may be desired to personalise finishes, though there is no reported flood risk.
