Summary - 14 FARMERS ROW BLACKBURN BB2 4NN
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Character filled, low-maintenance cottage ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
- Two bedrooms in a compact 732 sq ft layout
- Four-piece modern bathroom with Velux and frosted glazing
- Character features: exposed beams, stone wall, original fireplace
- Modern kitchen, separate utility and UPVC French doors
- Low-maintenance paved and decked rear garden with shed
- Small plot and generally small room sizes throughout
- EPC D and likely uninsulated stone walls (energy upgrade potential)
- High local crime and very deprived area may affect value
This mid-terrace cottage blends original character with updated fixtures across two floors. The reception room and exposed stonework retain period charm, while a modern kitchen, separate utility and a four-piece bathroom provide contemporary convenience. At 732 sq ft the layout is compact but efficiently arranged for everyday living.
The rear courtyard garden is low maintenance and ideal for outdoor relaxing without heavy upkeep. On-street parking and an enclosed forecourt add practical convenience. The property is freehold with council tax band B and mains gas central heating throughout.
Important considerations: room sizes and the overall plot are modest, typical of traditional terraced cottages. The stone walls are likely uninsulated, and the EPC rating is D. The immediate neighbourhood faces high crime rates and significant area deprivation, which may affect resale or rental demand. Broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal.
Well suited to first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home with character, or investors after a low-maintenance rental close to local amenities and transport links. Buyers should factor in potential energy-efficiency improvements and the local social context when assessing long-term value.
