"Ruby Street is a traditional end of terrace 2 bedroom home with bags of potential as a first home or for investors as a rental prospect. We can offer you a modern fitted kitchen, spacious lounge diner, two bedrooms and a modern house bathroom. Full gas central heating, UPVC double glazed window and loft insulation. You may need to apply a little TLC as this home has previously been used as a rental property and so feels a little unloved at the moment. SURE you can change that without much work involved.
There is a small side garden which, with a little cutting back of the mature bushes and minimal preparation of the ground, would make a lovely sitting area. There is a useful cellar for storage which boasts the original stone slab "cold shelf" which are often found in these period properties.
