This mid-terraced two-bedroom home sits in a central Barrow location convenient for shops, schools and public transport. It offers straightforward, ready-to-live-in accommodation with gas central heating, double glazing and modern sanitaryware — attractive to first-time buyers or landlords seeking a chain-free purchase.
The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen and an enclosed yard to the rear. Note the large bathroom is accessed through bedroom one, which may suit some buyers but reduce ensuite privacy. The property has average internal space (about 701 sq ft) and a compact external forecourt; plot size is very small.
Externally the brick façade is generally fair but nearby properties show weathering; some decoration and minor repairs (gutters/paintwork/roof tiles) may be beneficial. There is a potential for rainwater-related damp in places and the party chimney and older roof may need inspection. Cavity walls are present but likely uninsulated, so further insulation work could improve running costs and comfort.
Practical positives include on-street parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, plus very low council tax and freehold tenure. Important local context: the area is classified as very deprived with very high crime levels, which will affect resale values and rental demand. Overall this is a budget-friendly, chain-free opportunity for a first-time buyer willing to accept urban-area constraints or an investor targeting rental income.
