Andrew Kerr and Keller Williams (Ext. 907) are delighted to bring to the market this three-bedroom mid-terraced house is located in a mature residential area of Bellshill, surrounded by similar homes and within easy reach of local amenities. Built approximately seventy-five years ago for the local authority, the property offers around 86 square metres of internal accommodation over two levels and carries a current market valuation of £125,000, with an insurance reinstatement value of £190,000.
The layout consists of an entrance hall, living room and kitchen on the ground floor, with a landing, three bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor. Externally, the property is constructed of brick cavity walls with a rendered finish and a pitched tiled roof. The windows and external doors are uPVC double-glazed units, and there are gardens to both the front and rear. Access to the rear garden is understood to be shared via a pend, which should be verified through title deeds.
Internally, the ceilings are plasterboard, and the internal walls are plasterboard and plaster on hard. The ground floor features a solid concrete base, while the upper floor is of suspended timber construction. Some flooring areas were noted to be off-level and may creak when coverings are lifted. The kitchen is equipped with wall and floor mounted units, while the shower room contains a shower, WC and wash hand basin. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired boiler located in the kitchen, with radiators throughout. The property is connected to mains electricity, gas, water and drainage services.
The Home Report notes that the building is structurally stable, with no evidence of recent movement or significant dampness, rot or infestation. There is some weathering to chimney render, roofing materials and external joinery, with moss growth and areas of stained or split sarking boards in the roof space. Rainwater fittings include both PVC and cast iron, the latter showing signs of corrosion. Windows and doors exhibit wear due to mixed ages, and some first-floor window units may not satisfy current fire escape standards. Internally, minor plaster cracks and general age-related wear are present. The electrical system is older and likely to require upgrading following inspection by a qualified contractor, and some heating components such as radiators and pipework may benefit from attention.
Smoke detectors are present, although compliance with the 2022 Scottish interlinked standard cannot be confirmed within this report. Visible sections of plumbing and drainage appear free from significant defect. The survey assumed no Japanese Knotweed and notes that the area is affected by historic underground mineral workings, for which a Mining Report is recommended. Accessibility notes confirm three steps or fewer to the main entrance and unrestricted on-street parking within 25 metres.
