This newly refreshed three-bedroom end terrace on Burnley Road East blends period character with contemporary living. High ceilings and a large, bright reception room lead into a generous modern kitchen with adjoining utility — a practical, social layout well suited to first-time buyers and small families. The front-facing master bedroom enjoys countryside views, and the house benefits from recent flooring updates and double glazing.
The location is a strong selling point: immediate access to Rossendale Valley walking and cycling routes, local shops, gym and community centre, with Rawtenstall and Burnley under 15 minutes by car and good links to the M66/M65 for Manchester commuters. Several nearby primary schools are rated Good or Outstanding, while secondary provision in the area shows mixed Ofsted results, so check individual school catchments for your needs.
Important factual considerations: the property is leasehold (nominal ground rent £1) and was built before 1900 in sandstone/limestone with no confirmed wall insulation. Flooding risk is marked as medium and the wider area has higher deprivation indicators. Council tax costs are very low. These points affect running costs and potential retrofit work — insulation and flood mitigation should be factored into any renovation plans.
Overall, this chain-free home offers ready-to-live-in accommodation with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes. It will suit buyers seeking character with a modern kitchen and practical living space, who value countryside access and commuter routes but who are comfortable managing the modest tenure and some local area challenges.
