Summary - 218 DARWEN ROAD BROMLEY CROSS BOLTON BL7 9JQ
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Three-bedroom terrace with garage, station walk and enclosed yard ideal for first-time buyers.
Three bedrooms in traditional mid-terrace stone cottage
Set back from Darwen Road, this stone mid-terrace offers three bedrooms, a combined lounge-dining area and a detached garage reached from the rear. Its compact footprint (approximately 614 sq ft) suits first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors — the property has previously let for around £1,000 pcm. The location is a major asset: Bromley Cross station, local shops, restaurants and good schools are all within easy walking distance, with countryside and reservoirs close by.
The cottage retains period character including exposed beams and a fireplace in the living room and a traditional stone exterior. Practical features include mains gas central heating (boiler and radiators) and double glazing installed before 2002. The enclosed rear yard and front garden give private outdoor space while the detached garage provides off-street parking and storage.
Buyers should note the tenure is leasehold with a small ground rent (£75). Built around 1900–1929, the stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated and the property is small in overall size, so buyers may consider upgrading insulation or modernising services over time. There is one family bathroom and standard ceiling heights throughout, reflecting the traditional layout.
Offered with no onward chain, the house is presented as a ready-to-move-into home with clear potential to add value through sympathetic updating. Its combination of village convenience, transport links and low local crime makes it especially attractive for commuter purchasers and landlords seeking a stable rental in a comfortable neighbourhood.
