This chain-free end terrace offers roomy, flexible accommodation in a central SN1 location with strong practical benefits. Two double bedrooms plus a loft room and two reception rooms give immediate family or first-time buyers versatile space; a single garage and block-paved driveway for two vehicles are notable town-centre advantages. The house is offered with potential to extend (subject to planning), opening opportunities to add value.
The interior is functional with gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a fitted kitchen and bathroom. The property sits on a small plot with a gravelled side courtyard and paved patio — low-maintenance outdoor space that suits busy city living. The loft room provides extra accommodation or storage, and the garage could be used for parking or conversion (subject to consent).
Important negatives are factual: the area records very high crime rates, which may affect insurance and desirability for some buyers; the building is older solid-brick construction likely without wall insulation and may need thermal upgrades. There is only a single bathroom and some rooms will benefit from cosmetic updating. Any extension or garage conversion will require planning approval.
This house suits a buyer wanting central convenience and parking who is prepared to invest in energy improvements or cosmetic refurbishment to increase comfort and resale value. Proximity to the railway station and local shops makes it practical for commuters and those seeking town-centre living.
