A well-presented two-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace offered with no onward chain — a sensible, affordable step onto the property ladder. The layout is traditional and practical: a welcoming living room with period features and open fire, a large kitchen/diner, two double bedrooms and a tiled bathroom. The property is freehold and of average overall size (approximately 763 sq ft).
Outside, there are low-maintenance front and rear gardens and useful outbuilding storage. The location is convenient for Accrington town centre, local shops, bus links and several primary and secondary schools, which makes daily life straightforward for commuting and families.
Buyers should note clear, factual drawbacks: the EPC is rated D and the original stone walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so heating costs and energy improvements are likely priorities. The immediate area scores as deprived with above-average local crime levels; the plot is small and the property dates from the early 20th century so some modernisation or energy-efficiency work may be needed.
Overall this home suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a solid, characterful property with garden space and scope to improve energy efficiency and add value over time. The chain-free position and freehold tenure simplify purchase logistics.
