This chain-free, three-bedroom end-of-terrace offers clear potential for an investor or buyer happy to refurbish. The house occupies an average-sized footprint with a small front lawn, side access and a larger rear garden that backs onto woodland — providing a private outlook uncommon at this price band. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are already in place.
The internal layout is traditional: entrance porch, hall, galley kitchen, lounge with garden access, three first-floor bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC. The property needs updating throughout — cosmetic works are evident and a buyer should budget for refurbishment and a full services check before purchase. EPC grade D means some energy improvements would increase value and comfort.
Located in a hard-pressed, very deprived neighbourhood with above-average crime statistics, the area nevertheless benefits from good local amenities, frequent bus links, nearby woodlands and a cluster of well-rated schools. The combination of low council tax (Band A) and freehold tenure supports either a buy-to-let strategy or an affordable family purchase for someone prepared to renovate.
This is a straightforward, no-onward-chain opportunity for a practical investor or hands-on first buyer who can manage refurbishment costs and accept the local area context. A professional survey is strongly recommended to confirm condition and services before committing.
