This three-bedroom, ex-local authority semi-detached house on Mowbray Avenue is offered chain-free and will be sold via modern method of auction. Set in a quiet corner cul-de-sac, the property sits on a generous plot with front, side and rear gardens and an off-street driveway. Its position is convenient for Royal Blackburn Hospital, local supermarkets and junctions 4 and 5 of the M65.
The interior requires full modernisation: dated fixtures and fittings, signs of neglect to exterior finishes, and one bedroom has been subdivided with access through the second bedroom. Accommodation currently includes an entrance hall, large lounge, kitchen, utility, downstairs bathroom and two main bedrooms (plus the subdivided third room). The house is a straightforward renovation project with clear potential to create a comfortable family home or rental unit once refurbished.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no onward chain, good mobile and fast broadband, low council tax banding and an EPC rating stated as A. Notable cautions: the property needs renovation, has a derelict/neglect appearance in places, higher-than-average local crime and it sits in a very deprived area. Buyers should factor renovation costs and the auction sale process into their plans.
