Triple-glazed windows and solar panels help to give this property an excellent A3 energy rating, so bills will be economical. With off-street parking and a separate utility room, this two-bed mid-terrace house has a shed in the garden that works as a home office, and both bedrooms are doubles – with an en suite in the principal bedroom.
Plus: Excellent energy rating and turnkey interior
Minus: Downstairs is essentially one long room so noise could travel easily
