This stone‑faced mid‑terrace on Blackburn Road offers straightforward two-bedroom living with period character and practical updates. A modern fitted dining kitchen and wood‑floored lounge sit alongside feature fireplaces and PVC double glazing, giving a mix of original detail and low‑maintenance fixtures. The large attic room — with a Velux window and radiator — provides valuable extra storage or a potential home‑working space.
The house is well placed for daily needs: primary and secondary schools are nearby and junction 4 of the M65 is within about half a mile, convenient for commuters. A small front garden and a paved rear yard with a store keep exterior maintenance minimal. Heating is gas central and the vendor reports a long lease (999 years) with a very small ground rent.
Important considerations: the property sits in an area assessed as deprived and has a medium flood risk, which may affect insurance and resale in certain markets. The sale is leasehold — buyers should confirm lease terms and any obligations with their solicitor. While the kitchen appears recently refurbished, general updating or selective refurbishment may be desirable to suit modern preferences.
This home will suit a first‑time buyer or an investor looking for a compact, characterful terrace close to transport links. Viewing is recommended to assess space, condition and suitability for individual plans, particularly the attic conversion potential and overall finish.
