This two-bedroom mid-terraced Victorian property on Leyster Street offers straightforward, chain-free entry to Morecambe’s coastal life. The house retains period features — bay windows, high ceilings and fireplaces — giving scope to create a characterful home while the layout of two reception rooms plus kitchen suits everyday family living or rental use.
Practical points include gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and a compact, enclosed rear yard. The property is freehold with a very low council tax band, EPC rated D, and an overall footprint of about 793 sq ft, which makes running costs relatively modest but indicates limited living space.
The house will suit buyers looking to personalise rather than move in straight away: décor and some fittings are dated and the walls are likely uninsulated cavity construction, so adding insulation and some modernisation would improve comfort and energy efficiency. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime, so buyers should consider location suitability for family or long-term letting plans.
In short, this is a practical, affordable terraced home that rewards modest investment. It works well for first-time buyers wanting a characterful starter home or investors seeking a lettable property close to amenities and Morecambe Bay, provided they factor in renovation and local-area considerations.
