Two-bedroom mid-terrace stone-built Victorian home
A solid two-bedroom mid-terrace in Blackhill offering an affordable entry into the housing market. The stone-built Victorian facade conceals practical living space across two floors — lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom — all within around 872 sq ft. The property is freehold, chain-free and on very cheap Council Tax Band A, which helps running costs.
The house is fitted with gas central heating and double glazing, and has an enclosed rear yard that provides private outdoor space. Local amenities are close by (shops, bus links, Tesco Express) and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, making the location convenient for first-time buyers or small families.
The home presents clear scope to improve and add value: original Victorian features are present (high ceilings, cornicing, fireplace) but the interior is dated and will benefit from refurbishment. The stone walls are likely uninsulated (as-built), so buyers should budget for any energy-efficiency upgrades. Rooms are average in size and the plot is small, with on-street parking.
Overall this is a practical, low-cost starter home with good potential for cosmetic upgrading and energy improvements. It suits a buyer looking for a straightforward, affordable property to personalise rather than a turnkey move-in.
