A compact Victorian mid-terrace with genuine renovation potential, offered at a low guide price of £95,950. Set in an elevated position on Fothergills Road, the house benefits from open valley views and traditional stonework that reveal period character beneath the current worn finishes.
Internally there are two reception rooms, a kitchen with a large breakfast bar, a ground-floor shower room and a small conservatory. Upstairs provides two double bedrooms and one small single; the overall footprint is around 857 sq ft. The rear is a tiered small garden with large sheds/garage for storage.
Important practical points: the property requires renovation and modernisation throughout — cosmetic and likely fabric works are needed (walls are original sandstone/limestone with assumed no insulation). Glazing is double but install date is unknown. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; EPC is D. Broadband speeds are slow though mobile signal is excellent.
Location factors to weigh: the wider area is a very deprived, blue-collar terrace neighbourhood with high local crime rates and social-renter demographics. These constraints affect long-term resale and lettability but also keep the purchase price low. This house will suit someone prepared to carry out works — a first-time buyer with DIY skills, a small-scale investor or a buyer seeking an affordable project to add value.
