Description

This five-bedroom Grade II listed terraced house is arranged over three floors and has remained in the same family ownership for many years. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, two reception rooms with period details and fireplaces, and a kitchen/dining room with a pantry. A sun room and separate cloakroom are also located at the rear of the ground floor. On the first floor are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor, offering flexibility for sleeping, working or hobbies. The house retains features including high ceilings, decorative coving, original shutters and period fireplaces. It would benefit from modernisation and updating. The rear garden is walled, with a patio, lawn and mature planting. A detached double garage provides parking, storage or workshop space. Any change of use or building work to the garage would be subject to the necessary permissions and consents. The property is offered with no onward chain.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This substantial five-bedroom Grade II listed home has a strong period character, with fireplaces, high ceilings and original shutters, plus a walled garden and a detached double garage. The photographed rooms look usable but dated, making this a light modernisation project rather than a major refurbishment; the kitchen and bathroom also appear functional, with finishes that could be refreshed over time.

At £425,000, value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged because the floor area is missing. The overall opportunity is therefore still difficult to assess on the numbers, despite the house’s distinctive character and useful outside space.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated décor and carpets while retaining and highlighting the period fireplaces, high ceilings, coving and original shutters.
  • Make the most of the walled garden with routine clearance and planting improvements.
  • The substantial detached double garage is a distinctive existing asset; any conversion or extension would need feasibility and consent checks.
