Top Down vs Bottom Up Improvements? The roof’s been replaced, there’s a large, modern galley kitchen but the bathroom could do with freshening up and it needs a lick of paint. This affordable 3 bed mid terrace will make an ideal first home or BTL.

This affordable mid terrace certainly gives you a sense of possibility and potential. The open-plan lounge and dining room creates a spacious, social heart to the home.

The bigger-than-most galley kitchen isn’t brand new but the modern fitted units are well looked after, with plenty of storage and space to cook without having to squeeze past each other.

The bathroom is at the back and it’s ready for someone to add their own style when the time is right.

Upstairs, the three genuinely bedrooms offer flexibility - with two doubles and a proper single that could just as easily be a work-from-home spot or dressing room.

Outside, the enclosed rear yard gives you room to sit out with a morning coffee or dry the washing.

With the roof having been recently replaced and no urgent need to rip out the kitchen, this is a manageable project for first time buyers or investors who don’t mind getting stuck into a little cosmetic freshening-up. It’s certainly a property you could tackle room by room, when time and budget allowed.

It’s less than ten minutes walk into town so this property is handy for work or socialising without having to worry about parking, buses or taxis.

If you do have a car then there’s plenty of on-street parking at the front.

If you enjoy spending time outdoors, Vulcan Park is literally at the end of the street and Workington Hall Gardens is less than a 15 minute walk away.

It may not be top of your list right now but it’s good to know all the local early years schools are rated “Good” or “Outstanding”.

This three bedroom mid-terrace represents great value for money and is the perfect project for first time buyers or investors who don’t mind buying a property that needs a little cosmetic TLC.
