A compact mid-Victorian terraced house on Edward Street, offered chain-free and currently the subject of a formal Notice of Offer. The property is presented as a two-bedroom layout with lounge, dining kitchen and an enclosed rear yard — straightforward accommodation suited to letting or an entry-level purchase.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and a very affordable Council Tax band A. The location is convenient: Rishton town amenities, shops and primary schools are within walking distance, while Rishton train station and M65 junctions 5 and 6 are under five minutes’ drive, supporting strong rental demand or commuter appeal.
Material points to note: the home is leasehold and constructed before 1900 with stone walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation. The exterior is dated and internal living areas are average-sized (about 693 sq ft), so there is clear scope for cosmetic updating and improved energy performance. EPC rating D signals moderate running costs compared with modern stock.
For investors, the combination of low purchase price, good transport links and nearby schools makes this a candidate for a straightforward let after refurbishment. For a first-time buyer, the property offers an affordable foothold but expect some initial works and to check lease terms and any ongoing charges before committing.
