The minute I walked into the property, I immediately thought about the first-time buyer- fantastic opportunity for the first time buyer to get on the property ladder.

The property is a blank canvas and offers immense potential. It is a standard 3 bedroom/ 1 bathroom end of terraced house but with a difference – that is it has a nice size plot of land to the side/front – you could definitely do something with it, and it runs all along the side to the back garden so plenty of scope.

To the rear there is enough garden for you to extend to the rear whilst retaining outdoor space and then use the plot of the land to the side as your garden or indeed put on your thinking cap as to what you could do there.

Parking is outside the gate, and you have a sunny front garden as well.

Accommodation – porch with sliding doors, sitting room with an open fireplace, kitchen and then two small rooms off the kitchen and the back door. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.

I imagine putting on a single or two storey extension to the back, opening the whole house – you could easily then make it into a 4-bedroom house.

Yes, the house does need modernizing and updating but it is a fine solid house and one you could move into and do up over time.

Its main asset other than the garden is the fact that the bus stop is across the road, schools a 10-minute insulation etc.

The house measures and has a BER rate of E. There is a back boiler for the hot water but no heating and there are single glazed wood windows.

walk and the train a 10-minute walk.

When buying a house like this always look at the grants available to improve the energy rating – windows, doors, heating,
