This handsome Victorian mid-terrace offers almost 900 sq ft of flexible living across two floors, combining period character with a recently fitted kitchen. Two reception rooms and two generous bedrooms give scope for family living, home working or rental income. The stone facade and high ceilings retain strong curb appeal.
Practical strengths include off-street residents’ parking, double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and very fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Council tax is low, and there is no nearby flood risk — useful running-cost advantages for a first-time buyer or investor.
Be candid about the property’s maintenance realities: the house was built before 1900 and the original stone walls are assumed uninsulated, so heating costs and thermal upgrades should be expected. The living room shows period features but will need updating in places. The surrounding neighbourhood scores as very deprived with high local crime levels; buyers should factor this into safety, insurance and resale considerations.
Overall this is a roomy, well-located terraced home being sold freehold and ready to move into while offering clear potential to add value through sympathetic refurbishment and insulation improvements. It will suit first-time buyers seeking space and character or investors wanting a turnkey let in Colne, provided they are comfortable with the area’s higher local crime and regeneration challenges.
