A traditional two-bedroom semi-detached house on a quiet cul-de-sac in Whinny Heights, a short walk from Royal Blackburn Hospital and local amenities. The home offers a separate lounge, fitted kitchen, and family bathroom spread over two floors, with private gardens both front and rear and a separate single garage plus driveway.
