Set on a generous plot in Fulwood, this 1930s semi-detached home offers straightforward family living with genuine improvement potential. The property has traditional bay windows, three bedrooms (two doubles), a main bathroom and an adaptable ground-floor layout including a reception and separate dining room. A west-facing private garden, driveway with carport and single garage add useful outdoor and parking space.
The house requires full modernisation: cosmetic updating, likely internal improvements and possible insulation works are needed to bring the property up to contemporary standards. The building has cavity walls with no confirmed insulation and double glazing of unknown installation date; the gas boiler and radiators provide mains gas heating but should be checked as part of renovation. There is a medium flood risk for the area; buyers should factor this into insurance and refurbishment plans.
Location is a strong selling point for families — nearby good primary and secondary schools, local shops, bus routes and road links, plus Royal Preston Hospital within easy reach. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming needs. Council tax is described as affordable for the area.
For buyers willing to invest in upgrading, the property offers scope to increase value and tailor layouts to modern family life while retaining attractive 1930s character features such as bay windows and period proportions. For investors, straightforward renovation could attract strong rental demand in this well-served residential suburb.
