Chain-free and offered freehold, this three-bedroom terraced house is a practical entry point for first-time buyers or investors willing to update. The layout provides a living room, kitchen/diner, ground-floor cloakroom, and three upstairs bedrooms — all within a compact footprint of about 674 sq ft. The property has real potential to add value through modernization, particularly in the dated 1970s kitchen and general cosmetic works.
Outside, a manageable rear garden and nearby single garage plus parking spot give useful outdoor and storage space, though the garden and paved area will need attention. The house sits in a well-connected part of Houghton Regis with good local shops, several Ofsted-rated primary schools within walking distance, and strong transport links including the guided busway and easy access to the M1.
Buyers should note the material drawbacks: small overall size, a single family bathroom, and an interior that will require updating to reach contemporary standards. The surrounding area scores as deprived and the neighbourhood classification indicates local socioeconomic challenges — important considerations for those prioritising long-term resale or rental yields.
In short, this property suits purchasers seeking an affordable, chain-free starter home or a refurbishment project with clear scope to improve living space and value. Practical conveniences like a garage, cheap council tax band, and fast broadband add to its day-to-day appeal.
