This two-bedroom semi-detached home on Graham Avenue offers practical space and clear curb appeal for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking move-in-ready basics. The comfortable living room with a log burner creates a cosy focal point, while a modern kitchen and separate utility add useful day-to-day convenience. Two double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom suit small families or shared living.
Outside, the property benefits from a double-width paved driveway for off-street parking and a decent rear garden with decking, summerhouse and included hot tub — great for outdoor relaxing and entertaining. The house is freehold, chain-free, has double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating and an EPC band C, making it economical to run.
Location strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and easy access to a range of local amenities and well-rated schools, including an outstanding secondary nearby. Similar local properties achieve around £700–£800pcm if rented, which may interest investors as a secondary option.
Important drawbacks: the area records higher crime levels and is relatively deprived, which may affect desirability and resale values. The home is of mid-20th-century construction and, while generally presented well, buyers should budget for routine updating and checks typical of its age (services, roof and finishes).
