Chain-free three-bed cottage with private patio and elevated views, ideal for first-time buyers.
Stone-built mid-terrace with Victorian character
This stone-built mid-terrace cottage is a compact, well-presented home spread over three floors, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking character close to town. The living room feels cosy with a fireplace and a new fitted carpet; the modern beech-style breakfast kitchen provides an efficient space for daily use. The property benefits from gas central heating, PVC double glazing and a private, enclosed rear patio that is not overlooked and offers elevated distant views.
Accommodation includes three bedrooms and a generous four-piece bathroom—unusual for a home of this size—which makes the layout flexible for a small family or sharer. The house is offered chain-free and has substantial remaining lease of 771 years, reducing near-term tenure risk. Its location on Pendle Road is within easy walking distance of Clitheroe town centre, local schools (several rated Good–Outstanding) and commuter routes including the A59.
Buyers should note the property’s small overall footprint (approximately 738 sq ft) and multi-storey layout, which may suit those comfortable with stairs and compact rooms. The building is an older Victorian stone construction with assumed uninsulated solid walls; adding wall insulation would improve comfort and running costs but may require planning/consent and expenditure. EPC rating is D.
Other practical points: the area’s crime level is above average and the house is leasehold (long lease). Overall this cottage suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a characterful, low-maintenance home in a very convenient town location with potential to enhance energy efficiency and value over time.
