This three-bedroom mid-terrace on Balmoral Avenue is a compact, traditional layout that rewards buyers willing to renovate. The living room benefits from a squared bay window and there is a middle reception room plus a kitchen that would suit a modernisation project. A rear garden and separate garage add useful outdoor and storage space.
The house is freehold with mains gas central heating and double glazing installed post-2002. Council Tax is Band A, keeping running costs low. The location is convenient for local schools, public transport and nearby amenities, making it practical for commuters, families or investors seeking rental potential.
Notable drawbacks are clear: the property needs refurbishment throughout, the walls are solid brick likely without insulation, and the EPC is D. The wider area has above-average crime levels and the terraces reflect blue-collar, working‑class surroundings. Buyers should budget for upgrades and a full survey to confirm condition and any structural or services work required.
For someone looking to add value through improvement, this house offers a realistic entry price and flexible accommodation. Its modest size and traditional form make it straightforward to reconfigure or modernise so long as buyers allow for renovation costs.
