This newly modernised one-bedroom terrace on Burnley Road offers compact, low-maintenance living ideal for a first-time buyer or couple. The interior has been refreshed with a contemporary shower room, modern fitted kitchen and a roomy double bedroom, ready to move into without immediate works.
Set over two floors with a private rear yard, the cottage combines period exterior character with practical modern comforts: gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband reception. The freehold tenure and very low council tax make ongoing costs attractive for someone starting out or seeking a snug town-centre base.
Buyers should note material neighbourhood factors: the area is classed as very deprived with above-average crime rates. The property’s solid sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, so further insulation works could improve comfort and running costs. Living space is modest (approximately 618 sq ft), so the home suits single occupants or couples rather than families needing larger rooms.
With good local amenities, schools rated ‘Good’ nearby and excellent mobile signal, the cottage offers a straightforward, affordable entry onto the property ladder. There’s realistic scope to add value through targeted energy-efficiency improvements and cosmetic styling to maximise resale or rental potential.
