This two-bedroom semi-detached home on Preston Old Road offers an affordable entry into Blackpool property ownership. The layout includes a front living room, fitted kitchen/dining space, two modest bedrooms and a single bathroom — a compact footprint suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Practical benefits include off-street parking, an enclosed rear garden and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. The property is freehold, has double glazing (install date unknown) and very low council tax, all of which help reduce running costs. Public transport links are excellent and local shops, schools and parks are within easy reach.
There are some material considerations to note. Internally the home is small (approx. 603 sq ft) and in a deprived area with above-average local crime levels. The EPC is currently D, so energy performance and running costs could be improved. Some updating or targeted refurbishment would add value and comfort.
For a buyer seeking an affordable, well-located starter home, this property presents clear potential: a tidy, tenantable house with space to modernise and personalise. Viewings are recommended to assess room sizes and scope for improvement.
