This bay-fronted mid-terrace offers roomy Victorian proportions across three bedrooms plus a large loft room, ideal for a growing first home or buy-to-let. High ceilings and original period features give character and clear scope to personalise and add value. Sold chain-free on a freehold title, the property is ready for a buyer who wants to modernise to taste.
Accommodation includes a bay-front lounge, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, ground-floor bathroom, and a second-floor loft bedroom with en-suite. A paved rear yard and small outbuilding provide private outdoor space and storage. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double but installation date is unknown.
The house is in a central Claughton location with good transport links, local shops and a mix of nearby schools (some rated Good). Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal average. Council tax band is very cheap, which helps running costs.
Important negatives are factual: the property sits in a deprived area of older terraces, the external walls are solid brick likely without insulation, and some internal finishes are dated and will need updating. Prospective buyers should commission a survey, as services and fittings have not been tested and some renovation work is likely to unlock the best long-term value.
