This compact Victorian mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into Rossendale with immediate vacant possession and long leasehold security. Arranged over three floors, the home provides a main bedroom, a small converted attic room with a Velux, and a larger-than-average bathroom — useful living space for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
Key practical advantages include a 999-year lease (approximately 832 years remaining) with a nominal ground rent (£1.24), mains gas central heating, double glazing, and a tiered rear garden for outdoor use. Council Tax Band A keeps ongoing costs low. The property is pavement-fronted in a popular area close to local shops, schools and transport links.
The house is sold chain-free but is priced to reflect its condition and location. The attic has a low ceiling and is a simple conversion needing finishing; internal fittings and decoration are dated. The stone walls are original with no known insulation, so buyers should expect improvement and possible retrofit costs to upgrade thermal performance. There is a medium flood risk for the area — buyers should check insurance availability and costs.
Overall, this is a pragmatic, well-positioned purchase for someone seeking an affordable starter home or a rental with clear scope for improvement. Immediate availability and long lease length are strong positives; budget for refurbishment works if modern comforts and insulation are required.
