Chain-free starter or investment close to Bury town centre and transport links.
Two double bedrooms with separate living and dining rooms
This two-bedroom Victorian terrace offers a straightforward layout and strong first-home or buy-to-let potential in Fairfield, Bury. The property has separate living and dining rooms, a practical kitchen, and a rear enclosed yard — a useful outdoor space for tenants or a small family. The house is chain-free and sits on a large plot for its type, which could allow modest extension or landscaping subject to permissions.
The build dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls and double glazing (installation date unknown). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Expect traditional room sizes and some dated internal décor consistent with its era; the property will suit buyers happy to modernise or investors seeking rental income rather than a move-in‑ready home.
Notable negatives are the neighbourhood classification (hampered neighbourhoods) and wider area deprivation, which affect long-term demand and values. The solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for insulation/upgrades and check glazing and services. Tenure is not confirmed and should be verified. Council tax is very cheap, and there is no flood risk.
Overall, this is a pragmatic purchase for a first-time buyer wanting an affordable starter home near schools and transport, or for an investor targeting reliable rental demand in a major conurbation. Clear scope for improvement means added value can be achieved with measured investment.
