Summary - 53 OLD GATES DRIVE BLACKBURN BB2 5BY
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Bright renovated house with low-maintenance garden and garage parking.
Three double bedrooms; master with en‑suite shower room
This recently renovated three-bedroom detached house offers comfortable, versatile living for a growing family in a quiet, affluent Blackburn neighbourhood. The open-plan kitchen/diner and adjoining family room create a central social hub, while a separate lounge with a bay window and fireplace provides a quieter sitting space. The master bedroom includes a private en-suite and two further good-sized bedrooms share a modern family bathroom.
Externally the property is practical and low-maintenance: a generous driveway leads to an attached garage with internal access and plumbing for utilities, and the rear garden combines sheltered patio, pergola and raised decking with a faux lawn ideal for easy upkeep and entertaining. Excellent travel links (nearby train station and fast road access) and several well-rated primary schools nearby make this convenient for daily family life.
Important practical points are stated plainly. The home is leasehold (long remaining term) with a small ground rent; EPC rated C. The cavity walls are noted as originally uninsulated (assumed) which may be an area to improve for energy efficiency. Council tax is moderate and crime levels are average for the area.
Overall this is a well-presented, move-in-ready family home that balances modern fittings and low-maintenance outside space with sensible running-cost considerations and the potential to improve insulation for lower energy bills.
