This substantial five-bedroom Victorian terrace offers over 2,600 sq ft of flexible family accommodation across four floors, with high ceilings, original detailing and far-reaching views over Blackburn. The layout includes multiple reception rooms, a modern kitchen and one family bathroom. A lower-ground cellar has scope to be converted into further living space, subject to planning and building work.
Set on Preston New Road in a city location close to shops, places of worship and strong local schools, the home is chain-free and freehold, with good transport links including easy access to the M65. The south-facing rear garden is a welcome outdoor space for family life, while a small front garden adds kerb appeal.
Notable positives are the size, character features and modern kitchen fittings. Important practical points: the property has an EPC rating of E, solid brick walls assumed without insulation, and only one bathroom for five bedrooms. The plot is small and the area scores high for deprivation, which may affect long-term resale expectations for some buyers.
This house will suit a growing family seeking space and character who are prepared to carry out targeted improvements (insulation, energy upgrades, possible bathroom extension) to raise comfort and reduce running costs. Investors wanting rental yield or landlords with refurbishment experience may also find the conversion potential attractive, but should allow for upgrade costs.
