Description

This Victorian end terrace house is in need of modernization and presents a solid investment opportunity in a highly sought-after location. With three bedrooms and two reception rooms, the property is ideally positioned on a quiet no-through road, just a short distance from the city centre. The surrounding area is currently undergoing significant development, including plans for world-class science hubs at the Grafton and Beehive centres, indicating potential for increased property value. The historic city centre, mainline railway station, retail park, and several green spaces like Parker's Piece are all accessible within walking distance. The layout includes a ground floor entrance hall leading to a living room, dining room, kitchen, and bathroom; while the first floor features two double bedrooms and an additional single bedroom. Outside, you'll find a low-maintenance paved garden with a timber shed and side access gate. This property holds considerable potential for renovation throughout to create modern living spaces that meet today’s standards.
