Summary - 12 WEST STREET ALFORD LN13 9DG
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Spacious two-bed town house with period charm and low-maintenance garden in central Alford.
Freehold mid-terrace Victorian townhouse, circa pre-1900 construction
A spacious two-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse in the heart of Alford, offered freehold with generous room proportions and period character. The property spans two floors and includes a large reception room, separate dining room, fitted kitchen and a low-maintenance rear garden with a timber summer house — a practical layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Built before 1900 with a traditional brick façade and sash-style windows, the house benefits from gas central heating, a mains-fed shower, and double glazing installed after 2002. At about 1,082 sq ft, the home feels larger than many town-centre terraces and offers scope to modernise bathrooms, kitchen fittings or improve insulation where required.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect energy efficiency and heating bills. The area is classified as deprived with above-average local crime rates, and the plot is small — outdoor space is easily maintained but limited. Prospective purchasers are advised to obtain a survey to confirm condition and services.
Overall, this centrally located property offers strong potential for a comfortable starter home or a rental investment, combining period charm, practical living spaces and easy access to Alford’s amenities and well-regarded local schools.
