Summary - 10 WORDSWORTH STREET BURNLEY BB12 6QE
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Low-price renovation project with strong rental potential and transport links.
Two double bedrooms and two reception rooms
A compact Victorian mid-terrace arranged over two floors, offered at an accessible price point of £59,000. The house has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a small rear yard, making it straightforward to let or occupy after basic refurbishment. Central heating runs off a mains-gas boiler and the property has double glazing (install date unknown).
This is a renovation-led opportunity: the house requires upgrade and repair throughout, with dated decoration and signs of mould in the living room. The sandstone walls are believed to be uninsulated, so expect improvement works for thermal performance. The tenure is leasehold and there is an active public notice: an offer of £57,000 has been received subject to contract.
For investors and hands-on first-time buyers the strengths are clear — low asking price, chain-free sale, good rental potential and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The location is close to bus routes, motorway links and several Good-rated primary and secondary schools, supporting lettability.
Material concerns to factor into any plan: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates, and the property sits in a challenged transitionary neighbourhood. Full renovation costs and any leasehold terms should be checked before commitment. There is no flood risk recorded.
