This mid-terraced Victorian stone house offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Baxenden living. The layout spans three levels with a large reception room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom — functional accommodation for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property is freehold and priced to reflect its size and scope for improvement.
The home retains period character externally and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a paved front yard plus a rear yard with open views. Room sizes are efficient rather than generous; the main bedroom is the largest space and the second bedroom sits on the top floor with eaves storage. Nearby schools and local shops make the location practical for families.
There are clear areas to address: the EPC rating is E and the stone walls are likely uninsulated, so improving thermal performance would be sensible. Interior decor and some fittings are dated and will need modernising to reach contemporary standards. Parking is on-street only. These points reduce running costs and comfort until upgraded but also create scope to add value through targeted improvements.
Overall, this property suits a buyer seeking an affordable, characterful terraced house with potential — either to modernise for family living or to refurbish and rent. Viewings will best serve those prepared to invest modestly in energy improvements and cosmetic renovation.
