This compact mid-terrace house offers an economical entry to homeownership or a straightforward buy-to-let in Walney. The ground floor has a lounge and kitchen, with two first-floor bedrooms and a shower room above. Outside there’s a rear garden and a paved driveway to the front. The property is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and very low council tax (Band A).
At about 527 sq ft the house is small and best suited to a first-time buyer, single occupant or investor seeking a lettable one- or two-bedroom unit. The build dates from the 1970s with filled cavity walls; the interior is presented in a modern style but will suit buyers comfortable with modest fixtures and potential cosmetic updating. Broadband and mobile signals are average.
Buyers should note the local context: the wider area is classed as very deprived with working-class terraces and average crime levels. Schools nearby include a secondary rated 'Requires improvement' and a small independent provision. These factors affect long-term resale and rental demand and are important for buyers to weigh alongside the low purchase price and running costs.
A virtual video tour is available for initial viewing. The house is practical, economical to run and ready for someone seeking a low-cost foothold on the property ladder or a rental income opportunity, provided they accept the location’s socioeconomic challenges and the modest internal space.
