Summary - 28, Driscoll Street PR1 1UP
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Let-ready small terrace close to university and transport links.
Freehold mid-terrace, two bedrooms and one reception room
This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace on Driscoll Street has been recently refurbished and is offered freehold. The property presents a modern fitted kitchen, a contemporary bathroom suite and double glazing; it is currently let at £750 pcm, making it immediately income-producing for a buyer seeking a rental opportunity close to the University and city centre.
Practical caveats are clear: the home is small (approx. 582 sq ft) with a very small paved yard, assumed cavity walls without added insulation and older double glazing installed pre-2002. Heating appears reliant on portable electric units for most rooms, so further investment to install a central heating system would improve comfort and energy performance.
The location provides strong transport links, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for students or working tenants. However, the area scores very high for crime and is very deprived overall, which is an important factor for owner-occupiers and some investors to consider when assessing rental levels and long-term capital growth.
This property suits a landlord or an investor seeking a low-entry, let-ready terraced home close to amenities and the university. A buyer wanting to live in the house should factor in its compact footprint and likely costs to upgrade heating and insulation.
