This three-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse in Syston is aimed squarely at first-time buyers seeking a manageable, well-located starter home. The house offers a practical layout across two storeys, a garage and off-street parking to the rear, and a low-maintenance rear garden with paved patio and artificial grass — useful for busy new owners.
Interior rooms are modest but useable: a medium living room with recent decor and laminate flooring, a fitted kitchen with built-in appliances, two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, plus a refitted family bathroom and useful storage cupboards. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed (installed before 2002).
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low council tax (Band B), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and close proximity to the train station, shops and several Good-rated primary and secondary schools. The surrounding area is mixed: convenient for services and transport but described as deprived blue-collar terraces with above-average local crime — something to weigh for safety and insurance considerations.
The property is compact (about 646 sq ft) and sits on a small plot. Buyers should expect modest room sizes and limited garden space; the house was built in the late 1970s–early 1980s, so some elements (glazing, fixtures) may be dated even if presented well. Overall, this is a straightforward, economical entry-level purchase with parking and storage benefits that will suit buyers wanting to get on the ladder or investors seeking a lettable town property.
