This attractive two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Highfield Street combines period character with contemporary touches, making it well suited to first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in home. Hand-painted interiors, exposed timber floorboards and original sash windows give the house charm, while the open-plan kitchen/dining area creates a practical family hub. The property is compact but well laid out across approximately 743 sq ft.
Practical benefits include private off-street parking to the rear for one car, a low-maintenance front forecourt and a small rear garden with raised decking—ideal for outdoor entertaining without high upkeep. The house is freehold, on mains gas with a modern combination boiler and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. It sits within walking distance of Market Harborough town centre, shops, and several well-rated schools.
Buyers should note the home's solid brick walls were built before 1900 and are assumed uninsulated, and the double glazing was installed prior to 2002 — both factors that may affect energy efficiency. The area records above-average crime, which prospective buyers may want to consider. Overall, the property presents a comfortable, characterful starter home with clear potential to improve energy performance and personalise further.
