A chain-free mid-terrace with two double bedrooms, 477 sq ft and good-sized rear garden — ideal as a starter project or buy-to-let. The property is offered freehold and sits within easy reach of local schools, bus routes and the M62 junctions, with pleasant views and nearby countryside walks at Blackmoorfoot Reservoir.
The house requires a full programme of modernisation: the listing notes renovation is needed, a new central heating system should be installed, and walls are likely uninsulated cavity construction. Energy Performance is Band E (50), so budget for efficiency improvements. Internal fittings and décor are dated and will need updating to create a comfortable, efficient home.
For first-time buyers or investors this is a value-driven opportunity: low purchase price, very cheap council tax (Band A), off-street parking nearby and no onward chain reduce initial costs and hassle. The plot is small, the overall property is compact and located in a more deprived area, so consider long-term rental demand and improvement costs before committing.
