This stone-built mid-terrace in Oswaldtwistle’s West End has been fully renovated to a high standard and offers ready-to-move-in accommodation ideal for a first-time buyer. The home combines period character to the façade with a contemporary large dining kitchen and two well-proportioned bedrooms across approximately 826 sq ft. The property is chain free and situated close to good local schools, amenities and transport links.
Practical details are straightforward: the house is leasehold, has double glazing (install date unknown) and portable electric heaters are assumed to provide heating to most rooms. The sandstone or limestone walls are original and insulation is assumed to be absent, which could mean higher heating needs despite the recent renovation. Council tax is very cheap and there is no flood risk.
Externally there is a garden-fronted street presence and an enclosed rear yard with storage sheds, useful for bikes, bins and tools. The wider neighbourhood shows mixed socio-economic character — comfortable suburbia locally with longer-established blue-collar terraces nearby — so buyers should view with local context in mind.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, stylish starter home that delivers strong immediate usability and resale appeal in a popular local pocket. The main considerations are tenure (leasehold), the assumed heating arrangement and likely lack of wall insulation, which buyers may wish to investigate further.
