Summary - 51 SCHOOL STREET BAMBER BRIDGE PRESTON PR5 6QB
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable mid-terrace ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors, close to transport links.
Freehold two-bedroom mid-terrace, approx 712 sq ft
This two-bedroom mid-terrace on School Street offers a straightforward, affordable route onto the property ladder or a compact buy-to-let close to Preston. The house has traditional Victorian character externally, double glazing, mains gas heating and an EPC rating of C — practical features that keep running costs reasonable. The footprint is about 712 sq ft and the layout suits couples, small families or investors seeking reliable rental potential.
On the ground floor you'll find an entrance porch, a naturally bright lounge with built-in storage, and a kitchen/dining area with room for appliances and access to a low-maintenance rear yard. The yard is neat and private, finished with astroturf and a storage shed, while useful under-stairs storage helps maximise the limited footprint. Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms (a full-width master and a comfortable second room) and a family bathroom with a stand-in shower.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, excellent transport links (easy access to the M6/M61 and good local travel), fast broadband and strong mobile signal. The location is convenient for local shops, amenities and a mix of primary and secondary schools; however some nearby schools are rated 'requires improvement' which is relevant for families.
Material considerations are made plain: the house is a solid-brick terrace built c.1900–1929 with assumed no wall insulation, so buyers should budget for potential insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades. On-street parking only, and the local crime rate is above average — factors to weigh for family buyers and certain investors. Overall this is a modest, well-located property with immediate usability and clear potential for targeted improvements.
