This compact stone-built mid-terrace cottage blends Victorian character with sensible modern updates, making it a practical first home or buy-to-let starter. The lounge is a comfortable, high-ceilinged room centred on a multi-fuel stove, and the lower-ground kitchen diner provides a usable social hub with fitted units and pantry storage. Two upstairs bedrooms and a modern bathroom complete the layout across an average-sized internal area of about 879 sq ft.
Externally the property offers a very small, low-maintenance rear garden and on-street parking. The home is freehold and benefits from double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas central heating and very low council tax — factors that help keep running costs down. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast, useful for working from home.
Notable points for buyers: the terrace is Victorian stone with assumed uninsulated solid walls, so there may be scope and cost for improving wall insulation. The plot is very small and parking is on-street only. The wider area falls in a more deprived classification, which may affect resale prospects and lettings in some market segments. Internal space is compact and would benefit from only minor cosmetic updating to maximise value.
A sensible next step is a full survey and service checks on heating and appliances, as services have not been tested. For buyers wanting character, low upkeep and a central Cowlersley location with good transport links and nearby schools, this cottage is a practical, affordable option at the listed price.
