This two-bedroom mid-terrace Victorian property on Major Street offers a spacious footprint (approx. 1,155 sq ft) in sought-after Ramsbottom. The stone façade and period character provide immediate kerb appeal while the layout — front lounge, kitchen/diner, two first-floor bedrooms and loft — suits a first home or rental conversion. The rear backs onto school playing fields, so the outlook is open and not overlooked.
The house requires updating and modernisation to reach its full potential; cosmetic and systems improvements are needed (EPC F). Positive existing features include double glazing, mains gas boiler with radiators, underfloor heating in ground-floor rooms, a long lease (867 years) and a small, low-maintenance yard. These make the property practical to live in while you renovate.
For investors and first-time buyers this is a clear value-add opportunity in a well-connected town. Ramsbottom’s independent shops, cafes, good primary schools and transport links to Bury, Bolton and Manchester support rental demand and resale prospects. Expected costs should include modernisation work and energy-efficiency improvements to address the low EPC rating.
Overall this property suits buyers willing to carry out improvement works to create a comfortable home or to increase rental/value yield in a popular, affluent area with very low local crime and fast broadband.
