A traditional Victorian mid-terrace offering three bedrooms and two reception rooms within easy reach of Preston city centre and UCLAN. The layout is straightforward: vestibule, hallway, lounge, dining room, kitchen, and three bedrooms served by a modern three-piece bathroom. A small rear yard provides outdoor space and the property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and freehold tenure.
The house retains period character — bay window, decorative lintels and a period fireplace — but requires modernisation in parts: some decor is dated, walls are likely solid brick with no cavity insulation, and overall updates would increase comfort and value. Ceiling heights vary; some rooms feel lower than typical period rooms. Council tax is very cheap, and there is no flood risk.
Practical considerations: the area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime levels, and the neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan student-heavy, private-renting area. These factors affect resale and rental prospects and should be weighed against the property’s proximity to amenities, transport links and UCLAN. Chain-free sale makes a quicker move possible.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor prepared to refurbish to modern standards — cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements will pay dividends. Viewing is recommended to assess room proportions and renovation scope firsthand.
