Situated on Melbourne Street in central Barrow, this compact mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into homeownership or a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity. The ground floor’s two reception rooms link through to a kitchen-diner with French doors, creating a sociable layout that suits everyday family life or tenant living. A virtual video tour is available for remote viewing.
Upstairs provides two bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate shower. The property is freehold, gas central heated with double glazing, and council tax Band A keeps running costs low. A walled, gated rear yard and a useful toilet outbuilding add practical outdoor space despite a very small plot.
Honest shortcomings include compact room sizes and an early 20th-century build that needs updating in places; photographs indicate a degree of modernisation required. The house sits in an area of higher deprivation, which may affect long-term resale values and tenant demand. There is no flood risk, broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-cost, central property to personalise, or an investor looking for a reasonably priced terrace with steady rental potential. View the video tour to assess space and refurbishment scope before visiting in person.
