2 bed terraced house for sale

Blount Terrace, Kidderminster DY11

A traditional Victorian terrace with two reception rooms, two double bedrooms, a generous rear garden enjoying a leafy backdrop towards the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal, and excellent scope for a new owner to personalise over time.

Occupying a popular residential position close to Kidderminster town centre, this characterful Victorian terrace offers deceptively spacious accommodation together with a longer-than-expected rear garden and useful cellar storage. Combining period proportions with practical living space, the property presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, investors or those looking for a home they can gradually make their own.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming sitting room centred around a feature fireplace with inset multi-fuel stove, creating a comfortable everyday living space. Beyond, the separate dining room provides flexibility for family meals, entertaining or home working and flows openly into the galley-style kitchen, offering buyers the opportunity to reconfigure or enhance the space to better suit modern lifestyles if desired.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary base and wall units with timber-effect work surfaces, incorporating an integrated oven, gas hob and extractor canopy, together with space and plumbing for further appliances. A glazed door provides direct access to the rear garden.

Completing the ground floor is a generously proportioned family bathroom, fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over and glazed screen, low level WC and wash hand basin set within a vanity unit.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both enjoying good natural light, with the principal bedroom benefiting from fitted wardrobes and bedroom two offering a versatile space suitable for guests, children or a home office.

A staircase leads down to the useful cellar, providing valuable storage and potential workshop space.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance with paved and gravelled seating areas, creating several places to sit and relax. Extending further than first impressions suggest, the garden enjoys an attractive backdrop backing towards the mature tree-lined corridor of the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal, providing a greener outlook than many properties of a similar age and style.

The property enjoys convenient access to Kidderminster town centre, local shops, schools, public transport links and road connections, making it well suited for commuters and everyday family life.
