Move-in ready terraced home with garage conversion potential, ideal for starters or landlords.
Modern fitted kitchen and upgraded bathroom with shower over bath
Large converted garage/laundry room — scope to add second bathroom
Fully enclosed rear yard; compact, low-maintenance outdoor space
Freehold tenure; Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low
Double glazing present (installed before 2002)
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated — consider insulation works
Located in a very deprived area with constrained renter demand
Small room sizes typical of Victorian terraces; limited plot size
A recently modernised two-bedroom mid-terrace offering ready-to-move-in accommodation in a popular residential pocket of Barrow-in-Furness. The ground floor has an open-plan living and dining area, a modern fitted kitchen and a large former garage converted to a laundry/utility room that offers scope for further development.
Practical features include an upgraded bathroom with shower over bath, double glazing and mains gas heating. The fully enclosed rear yard and separate laundry room add convenience for families and tenants. The property is freehold and sits in Council Tax Band A, keeping running costs low.
Notable limitations are the house’s small plot and compact room sizes typical of early 20th-century terraces, and the solid brick walls which are assumed to lack modern insulation. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with a local market of constrained renters; this supports rental demand but may affect long-term capital growth and buyer choice.
This will suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable, move-in-ready starter home or investors looking for an easily-managed rental letting close to local schools and amenities. There is also potential to add value by reconfiguring the large utility/garage space into additional living accommodation or a second bathroom, subject to planning and building works.
