This mid-terraced Victorian property in Revidge, Blackburn, offers clear upside for an investor or hands-on buyer prepared to renovate. The house has two bedrooms plus a useful attic room, a separate kitchen/diner and a rear yard — workable layout for rental or resale after refurbishment. Freehold tenure and a very low Council Tax band (A) add to the running-cost appeal.
The property is being sold at auction via secure online bidding, priced to reflect its condition and renovation need. The building dates from before 1900 and shows traditional stone character; rooms are relatively small and the plot is very small. The EPC rating is E and the listing states the property needs modernisation throughout.
There is contradictory information about heating: listing text refers to gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, while dataset notes main heating as electric room heaters and unconfirmed double glazing. Buyers should verify the heating system, glazing and any services before bidding. The area has good local schools and fast broadband, but also above-average crime and higher area deprivation — factors to weigh for letting demand and long-term value.
Overall this is a value-driven opportunity for an investor or DIY buyer able to manage refurbishment, compliance works and local letting considerations. Expect cosmetic and likely some fabric or services upgrades; obtain surveys and local checks prior to purchase.
