2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Affordable Victorian terrace near Towneley Park, ideal for rental or refurbishment.
Vacant possession and sold with no onward chain
Very long leasehold with minimal ground rent (£1.05 p.a.)
Modern combi boiler and gas central heating throughout
uPVC double glazing fitted (install date unknown)
EPC rating D; energy efficiency and insulation limited
Small overall footprint; rooms are modest in size
Local area: very deprived classification and higher crime rates
Bedroom count inconsistent in records (two or three) — confirm
Offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, this compact mid-terrace sits just off Lyndhurst Road, a short walk from Towneley Park. The house has traditional stone frontage, two separate reception rooms and a modern fitted kitchen, making it straightforward to let or occupy. Gas central heating runs from a modern combi boiler and the property is uPVC double glazed throughout.
The layout is modest: small rooms typical of late‑Victorian terraces and a low‑maintenance rear yard. Records contain inconsistent bedroom counts (two or three), so buyers should confirm exact room arrangement at viewing. EPC is D and Council Tax Band A, suggesting economical running costs but limited energy efficiency.
Practical positives include a very long lease (residual of a 999-year lease) and a negligible ground rent (£1.05 p.a.). The property suits buy‑to‑let investors or first‑time buyers seeking an affordable entry into Burnley; quick occupancy and minimal immediate outlay are possible. However, the surrounding area is classed as very deprived with higher local crime levels, which will affect rental demand and resale considerations.
Overall, this is a budget-priced terrace with solid basics and clear potential for rental income or a straightforward refurbishment. Buyers should factor in local area challenges and verify bedroom count and any required repairs on inspection.
