For Sale Guide Price £400,000 - Terraced House
In need of general modernisation, but set in a wonderful location close to the shops and hubbub of Gloucester Road, is this Victorian three-bedroom terrace with its enclosed rear garden of good size.
A terraced Victorian family house, in need of thorough modernisation, set in a wonderfully convenient location close to the popular shops, cafes, eateries and community activities in and around Gloucester Road. Arranged over two floors, the house has two separate reception rooms, one of which opens into a full-width kitchen, three bedrooms upstairs and a ground floor bathroom (it would seem sensible to convert one of the bedrooms into an upstairs bathroom, then repurpose the one below). The rear garden is of a nice size, quite secluded with high fencing around, and currently laid to lower maintenance plastic grass.
