Summary - 14 BIRCH TERRACE ACCRINGTON BB5 2QE
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home near parks and strong commuter links.
Chain-free Victorian mid-terrace with garden frontage
A garden-fronted Victorian terrace in Baxenden, this three-bedroom house offers a straightforward route onto the property ladder. The ground floor features an open-plan kitchen diner with sliding doors to the rear yard, creating a bright social hub for everyday living and informal entertaining. The property is chain-free, so purchase can be quicker and simpler than usual.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom; rooms are neutrally presented and benefit from natural light. Outside, the enclosed rear yard includes a practical storage outbuilding and room for pots or a small seating area. The home sits within walking distance of Oakhill and Haworth Park and has excellent commuter links for journeys further afield.
Practical points to note: the house is leasehold and dates from the early 1900s, with traditional sandstone/limestone walls that are assumed uninsulated. It has double glazing (fitted since 2002) and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, but it will suit buyers prepared to carry out updating and minor renovation to maximise potential. Council tax costs are very low, and the area records very low crime and fast broadband — useful for working from home.
This property will appeal most to first-time buyers or small families seeking an affordable starter home in a well-regarded suburb. Its combination of period character, a usable outdoor space, and no onward chain gives clear scope to personalise and add value over time.
