This mid-20th-century mid-terrace villa offers a practical three-bedroom layout and a large, fully enclosed rear garden — a genuine asset for families or first-time buyers who want outdoor space. The house is laid out over two storeys with a bright lounge, fitted kitchen, and a double-size walk-in shower room; gas central heating and double glazing are already in place.
One bedroom provides access to a floored attic, offering clear potential for an additional room or home office subject to the necessary planning and building permissions. The property is freehold, approximately 1,035 sq ft, and has off-street parking via a driveway, with additional on-street parking available.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the driveway needs modernisation and the house would benefit from cosmetic updating in places — it’s a solid candidate for someone prepared to invest time or money to add value. The area is described as very deprived with a hard-pressed local demographic; buyers should factor local demand and longer-term resale prospects into their plans.
Council Tax Band C makes ongoing costs relatively affordable. Note the closing date for offers, Wednesday 3rd September at 12 noon. Overall this is a well-proportioned, value-oriented home for first-time buyers, young families or small-scale investors willing to carry out light refurbishment and explore attic conversion potential.
