This two-bedroom semi-detached house in Hillside, Burnley, offers an affordable entry into home ownership with freehold tenure and very low Council Tax (Band A). The property sits on a small-to-medium plot with a single-driveway and a large rear garden — appealing for first-time buyers who want outdoor space and potential to personalise. Double glazing and mains gas central heating provide practical comforts year-round.
Internally the layout is an average-sized two-storey plan (approximately 663 sq ft) that will reward straightforward modernisation. The exterior presents well with a rendered and brick façade and mature hedging for privacy; inside, the home appears structurally sound but benefits from cosmetic updating to maximise value. The property’s age (built 1950–1966) and cavity walls (assumed without insulation) suggest opportunities for energy-efficiency improvements.
Location strengths include good bus links, nearby green space (Scott Park) and local schools rated Good — useful for young families or professionals. Low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make the home practical for everyday life. For buyers seeking a manageable refurbishment project with clear uplift potential, this house offers a sensible, budget-friendly prospect.
Notable considerations: the home is best suited to purchasers prepared to invest in internal modernisation and possible insulation works. The plot is not large at the front and hedging limits light on one side. EPC D indicates average efficiency; targeted improvements will reduce running costs and increase resale or rental value.
