Set in a row of stone-built terraces, this two-bedroom end-terrace blends period character with updated fittings. The sitting room retains an original stone fireplace and benefits from good natural light; a modern kitchen with contemporary units and subway tiles provides a practical heart to the home. The property extends to around 793 sq ft and includes a small rear garden with shed and rear access.
Practical features include double glazing (fitted post-2002), a mains-gas boiler with radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council tax is very low, and there is no identified flood risk. The house was constructed c.1900–1929 and has traditional sandstone/limestone walls; insulation is assumed to be absent in the wall construction and could be upgraded to improve comfort and running costs.
This house suits a first-time buyer or buyer seeking an affordable period home with some modern comforts. The area is classified as deprived terraces with higher local crime levels, so viewings should include a local tour to assess neighbourhood fit. Tenure is not specified and should be confirmed before offer.
Note the guide price range £125,000–£175,000 and the vendor’s note that additional land is available by separate negotiation for £75,000. The accommodation is average-sized overall and will appeal to buyers looking for a compact, characterful home with scope for targeted improvement rather than a turnkey move-in mansion.
