This mid-terraced Victorian house offers a straightforward entry into homeownership. It is chain-free, freehold and arranged over two floors with around 720 sq ft of living space, two bedrooms and a modern family bathroom — practical for a first home or buy-to-let starter.
The house benefits from a combi boiler central heating system, a rear courtyard and fast broadband speeds, with Leigh town centre, shops, schools and Leigh Infirmary nearby. Transport links to Manchester are good, making commuting feasible while keeping local amenities within walking distance.
The property does require some modernisation: room sizes are generally small and the exterior and internal finishes will benefit from updating. The plot is small and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with a high proportion of renters – factors that can affect resale or rental demand and should be weighed by buyers and investors.
Practical positives include low flooding risk, low council tax and no onward chain, which simplify purchase costs and timing. For a buyer prepared to invest modestly in improvements, this house provides an affordable, manageable home or a lettable asset in an established town location.
