A compact three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering a straightforward, affordable entry to homeownership in Oswaldtwistle. The stone-fronted facade, two reception rooms and enclosed rear yard give comfortable living space for a first-time buyer or small family. The property measures around 1,001 sq ft and is offered freehold for practical long-term ownership.
Practical details include mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and an EPC rating of C. The house sits within walking distance of Ryddings Park, nearby high street amenities and several well-regarded primary schools, making daily life and school runs convenient. Major road links are easily accessed for commuting.
Be clear about the work and context: the building is a period home (circa 1900–1929) with traditional sandstone/limestone walls that are likely uninsulated, so improving thermal performance and insulation would be sensible. The plot is small and the rear space is an enclosed yard rather than a large garden. Local area indicators show higher deprivation and above-average crime levels, which may concern some buyers.
Overall this house suits a buyer seeking an affordable starter home with period character and scope to improve energy efficiency and interior finishes. It represents solid value at the asking price for someone prepared to carry out targeted upgrades and who prioritises location and school access over outdoor space and a low-crime setting.
