A compact, newly renovated three-bedroom mid-terrace in Bearwood, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The house benefits from a recent refurbishment: new boiler and radiators, refitted wiring, new flooring and carpets, uPVC double glazing and a modern extended kitchen with efficient stainless-steel appliances. These improvements make it an attractive option for a first-time buyer seeking a low-immediate-maintenance home.
The layout includes two reception rooms, an extended galley kitchen, a modern family bathroom with separate shower cubicle, an upstairs WC and a small rear garden with rear access. The property’s practical energy features include low-energy lighting in fixed outlets and a mains-gas combi boiler, though the current EPC is D. Rooms and overall floor area are compact (approximately 776 sq ft), so buyers should expect cosy living spaces and modest storage.
Important considerations: the house is an older Victorian mid-terrace constructed with solid brick and no confirmed cavity insulation, which may affect long-term heating costs and comfort. The area is classified as relatively deprived, and some local schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes. Plot size is small and the front yard is limited, so outdoor space is modest compared with larger family homes.
In summary, this is a practical, move-in-ready starter home that offers modern fixtures and straightforward running costs (cheap council tax band B), with good local transport links, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. It will suit buyers prioritising location, low upfront work, and affordable ownership, while those seeking larger rooms, extensive gardens or higher energy efficiency should consider whether further insulation works are desirable.
