Summary - 55 Alma Place GL1 5PU
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free period home with strong rental potential and garden..
Chain-free Victorian mid-terrace with two double bedrooms
An attractive double-fronted Victorian mid-terrace on Alma Place offered chain free and with strong rental potential. The house has two double bedrooms, separate living and dining rooms, a ground-floor bathroom and a private rear garden — a straightforward, traditional layout that suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. Estimated rental income and a projected 6% yield underline the property’s investment credentials.
The fabric is period solid-brick construction with uPVC double glazing and gas central heating via a combination boiler. The accommodation totals around 68 sqm (approx. 1,452 sq ft stated overall) and sits on a decent plot in a mixed residential area with good local shops, well-rated nearby schools and fast broadband and mobile signal. On-street parking is available nearby and council tax is low (Band A), which helps running costs.
The house requires refurbishment: cosmetic updating throughout and likely energy-efficiency improvements (EPC rating E; solid walls assumed uninsulated). These works present scope to add value but will require budget and contractor input. Crime levels in the area are above average, so buyers should consider security measures. There is no reported flood risk.
In short, this freehold terrace is best for a buyer prepared to renovate to modern standards or an investor seeking an immediate let-ready income after refurbishment. The property’s central Linden location, nearby schools and transport links make it practical and potentially profitable, provided purchasers factor in upgrade and security costs.
