This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Rockcliffe Street is presented chain-free and newly renovated — a compact, ready-to-move-in home ideal for a first-time buyer. The house retains a traditional stone facade and benefits from double glazing, modern finishes and a south-facing rear patio that brings daylight into the kitchen and rear bedroom.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a 180 sqft living room to the front, a fitted kitchen-diner opening to the south patio, and two first-floor bedrooms with a bathroom. The larger front bedroom spans the full width and offers useful alcove space for wardrobes; the smaller rear room currently houses the combination boiler in a built-in cupboard, which could be relocated to create a more flexible second bedroom or a home office.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating via a combi boiler, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low. The property sits close to Rawtenstall town centre and local schools rated Good, making commuting and everyday errands straightforward.
Buyers should note the home is small (about 533 sq ft) with a very small plot and limited outdoor space. Built before 1900, the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation — the Energy Performance Certificate is D. The area is classified as deprived and crime is average; these factors should be considered alongside the low price and renovation potential. Overall, this is a compact, affordable starter home offering immediate occupation and scope to personalise.
