This garden-fronted mid-terrace on Twist Lane is offered with a tenant in situ, delivering immediate rental income in a well-connected part of Leigh. The house has two double bedrooms, a contemporary kitchen/diner with French doors to a low-maintenance rear yard, UPVC double glazing and gas central heating — practical features that help keep running costs down. The long lease (well over 800 years) reduces typical leasehold concerns.
Internally the property is compact (approx. 356 sq ft) and suited to buy-to-let portfolios or first-time investors seeking a low-management asset. Nearby amenities include Leigh town centre, Parsonage Retail Park, frequent bus links and several primary and secondary schools rated Good. The EPC C rating is reasonable for the age of the build and supports continued lettability.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is in a very deprived area which can affect tenant profiles and capital growth; the property is small and may not suit buyers needing generous living space; original solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance may be beneficial. Overall, this is a straightforward rental opportunity offering immediate income and modest scope for improvement.
