Set on a large corner plot in a quiet Baxenden cul-de-sac, this three-bedroom detached house offers clear potential for a growing family. The elevated position delivers pleasant views and the generous garden area creates scope for extension or reconfiguration to suit family needs.
Internally the home totals around 812 sq ft and dates from the 1970s, with period fixtures and some visible wear. There is one bathroom, a medium-sized living/dining space with a fireplace, and standard ceiling heights. The layout is practical but will benefit from updating and cosmetic refresh to unlock full value.
Practical features include a multi-vehicle driveway, single garage and freehold tenure. Connectivity is strong — excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — and the area records low crime and affordable council tax. Local primary and secondary schools are nearby (most with Good Ofsted ratings; one local primary rated Inadequate), and commuter links are convenient for workplaces.
This property suits families looking for a ready-to-improve home with expansion potential rather than a turnkey move-in. Buyers should budget for modernisation and expect to carry out refurbishment or an extension to fully exploit the corner plot and elevated position.
