This compact mid-terrace Victorian house sits a short walk from Leek town centre, offering straightforward, chain-free purchase for first-time buyers or landlords. The accommodation comprises a lounge, kitchen, two small first-floor bedrooms and a bathroom — a simple, practical layout with period character and a small rear yard.
Key benefits include mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and fast mobile and broadband availability, making the house ready for everyday living while you plan improvements. The property is freehold with very low council tax, which supports affordable ongoing running costs.
The house is small and will suit a single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor rather than a growing family. It requires some modernisation — kitchens, bathrooms and decorative finishes are dated and the solid brick walls likely lack loft or cavity insulation, so energy improvements may be needed to reduce running costs.
Location is convenient for shops, schools and public transport, but note the wider area records higher crime levels and elevated deprivation indicators. The rear yard provides basic outdoor space but there is no front garden or driveway. Overall this is a budget-priced, straightforward property with potential for rental income or a staged modernisation plan.
