This compact three-bedroom mid-terrace in Fulwood offers an accessible, no-onward-chain entry into the PR2 market. The ground floor has two reception rooms, including a bay-fronted sitting room that brings in natural light, and a kitchen with scullery and patio doors to a small paved rear yard. The property totals about 961 sq ft and sits on a small plot typical of older urban terraces.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family shower room. The house was built in the 1930s with cavity walls and double glazing; cavity insulation is not evident and the home would benefit from some modernisation to heating, finishes and energy efficiency. Main heating is gas boiler and radiators; there is no flood risk recorded and the tenure is freehold.
Location strengths include proximity to local shops, Royal Preston Hospital, frequent bus routes and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Nearby schools include a mix of independent and state options, with one outstanding primary close by. Buyers should note the wider area is classed as deprived with above-average crime statistics; purchasers may want to review local crime data and consider security measures.
For first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a straightforward, chain-free purchase in Fulwood, this property provides scope for value-add through updating and insulation improvements.
