This two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace offers an affordable entry into Leigh’s established residential area, sized at approximately 789 sq ft. The house retains period character — bay window, fireplace and original proportions — combined with a practical fitted kitchen/dining room and an enclosed rear courtyard. Council Tax Band A keeps ongoing costs low, and excellent mobile signal and fast broadband suit working-from-home needs.
The layout is straightforward: lounge with bay window and fireplace, ground-floor kitchen/diner with built-in oven, gas hob, plumbing for appliances, and two first-floor bedrooms (one with fitted wardrobes). The enclosed rear yard provides private outside space in an otherwise urban street setting; parking is on-street. Low local crime and no flood risk are further positives.
Buyers should note a few important considerations. The living room is described as dated and would benefit from modernization to fully unlock the home’s potential. The property is leasehold — check the lease length, ground rent and service charges before committing. No mains services or appliances have been tested by the seller, so a buyer survey is recommended to confirm heating, electrics and plumbing.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who wants a manageable, period property to personalise. Given the area’s higher deprivation statistics, purchasers should factor in local market conditions. Overall, the house represents budget-friendly access to Leigh with sensible renovation potential and low running costs.
