Step into a spacious mid-terraced home on York Street offering two bedrooms plus a large attic room — practical space for a growing household or home office. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a modern kitchen; a rear yard provides private outdoor space in a compact urban plot. At 894 sq ft and offered freehold, the property is attractively priced for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate occupancy or light updating.
The house retains period character with a stone Victorian façade, a contemporary living room fireplace and functional fittings throughout. The kitchen and shower room are modern and usable now, while the attic conversion adds significant extra accommodation. Local amenities, bus links and a mix of nearby schools make the location convenient for daily life and commuting across Hyndburn and nearby towns.
Important practical points: heating relies on electric storage heaters and glazing was installed before 2002, so energy costs may be higher than average. The exterior stone walls are likely uninsulated, presenting an opportunity to improve comfort and reduce bills with sensible investment. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime; buyers should weigh local risks and consider security and longer-term value improvements.
Priced at £90,000, this property offers clear potential: straightforward cosmetic or insulation upgrades could increase comfort and resale/rental value. It suits first-time buyers wanting an affordable starter home with room to grow, or investors targeting a rental in a high-demand, low-cost entry market.
