This Edwardian semi in FY3 offers a generous footprint and clear scope for value uplift. Two reception rooms (each over 15ft), a kitchen in excess of 17ft and a conservatory provide flexible living space, while three first-floor bedrooms and a substantial five-piece bathroom mean the layout already suits a family or rental use.
The house requires modernisation throughout: it is sold chain free and presented as a renovation project. Heating is via electric storage heaters, walls are cavity as built with no added insulation (assumed), and some systems and finishes will need updating. These factors should be budgeted into any refurbishment plan.
Externally there is a westerly-facing rear garden and a garage; the plot is small but manageable. The property sits around half a mile from Blackpool North station and within easy reach of the town centre, offering good transport links for commuters. Local amenities are close by but the wider area shows higher levels of deprivation and recorded high crime, which may affect rental demand and resale values.
This home will suit an investor seeking a renovation opportunity or an owner-occupier comfortable with a refurbishment programme. Practical positives include the generous room sizes, period features and no onward chain; realistically, buyers should allow for works to heating, insulation and general modernisation to realise the property's potential.
