Set on a generous plot in Hill Top Drive, this two-bedroom semi-detached home offers practical space for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The living room features exposed brick, a wood-burning stove and herringbone flooring, creating a welcoming central space. Off-street parking, a large driveway and a detached garage plot add everyday convenience and storage options.
The property is freehold and of typical 1967–1975 construction. It benefits from double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuters and home workers. Nearby amenities, bus links and the M62 motorway provide good connectivity, and several local primary schools have Good Ofsted ratings.
Buyers should note material practical considerations: external cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, and the property may require energy-efficiency upgrades and general modernisation in places. The wider area is classified as outer-city hardship with high deprivation, although local crime levels are recorded as very low. Council tax band is unknown and will need confirming.
For buyers looking to add value, the decent plot and substantial private garden offer scope for extensions or landscaping (subject to planning). The combination of straightforward floorplan, parking and strong transport links makes this a realistic purchase for first-time owners wanting a long-term home or investors seeking rental demand in a commuter area.
