Affordable, practical two-bedroom home needing cosmetic update; ideal first-time buyers or investors.
Chain-free freehold two-bedroom end-of-terrace
A chain-free, freehold two-bedroom end-of-terrace with good-sized rooms and small front and rear gardens. The layout includes two reception rooms, a separate WC and bathroom, and a kitchen — practical for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking straightforward accommodation in BL4.
The house was built in the post-war period (circa 1950–66) and measures about 746 sq ft. It benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and very low local crime. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home workers and families.
Cosmetic updating is needed: dated fixtures, mid-20th-century decor and carpeting throughout; the living room and other spaces would benefit from modernisation. The property sits in a more deprived but stable neighbourhood with good local schools rated Good, nearby bus links and basic amenities within walking distance.
Overall this is a practical, affordable purchase at £170,000 for a buyer willing to refresh interiors. Its chain-free status, freehold tenure and straightforward layout make it a sensible step onto the ladder or a manageable rental prospect, but budget for decoration and potential modernisation works.
