Victorian two-bed mid-terrace — chain-free, project potential and good transport links.
Chain free, ideal first-time buy or rental
Chain-free, two-bedroom mid-terrace on Marlton Road presented as a practical first purchase or straightforward rental. The house retains Victorian character — high ceilings, brick exterior — and sits on a small plot with an enclosed rear yard and palisade front garden. A recently refitted gas boiler provides heating; double glazing is already installed.
The layout is traditional: entrance vestibule, two reception rooms, downstairs wet room off the front reception, kitchen, two bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom. The downstairs wet room and level ground-floor space may suit buyers needing all-on-one-level facilities. Local transport links are strong, with frequent buses on Bolton Road and Blackburn train station within walking distance.
This is a project property with clear potential but also clear limitations. Rooms are generally small, the walls are likely uninsulated cavity construction, and much of the interior is dated and will need modernization. The area is in a very deprived classification with higher local crime rates, so buyers should weigh rental yield or owner-occupation benefits against local market conditions. EPC is TBC and the property is offered freehold with very low Council Tax (Band A).
