Summary - 23 HALIFAX ROAD BRIERCLIFFE BURNLEY BB10 3QH
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Semi-rural two-bedroom with open valley views and private garden.
Stone-built Victorian terrace with exposed beams and stone features
Set across three floors, this stone-built Victorian terrace blends period character with practical living space. The reception room features exposed beams and a cast-iron multi-fuel stove, while the lower-ground dining kitchen and stone-flagged floor add rustic charm. Two first-floor bedrooms and a modern three-piece bathroom complete comfortable accommodation of about 800 sqft.
Outside, a long, low-maintenance private rear garden faces open Thursden Valley countryside, giving excellent outlooks and a sense of space despite the small plot. The cottage sits on the outskirts of Burnley with regular bus routes, nearby shopping at Harle Syke, and quick access to the M65 for wider travel.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating (Vaillant combination boiler), double glazing, and an EPC rating of D. Notable realities: the building’s original sandstone walls likely lack cavity insulation, ceilings are low in places, and the layout is multi-storey with stairs between levels — factors to consider if mobility or full modernisation are priorities.
For a first-time buyer wanting character, countryside views and a private garden without the upkeep of a large plot, this property offers an affordable entry into period home ownership. There is scope to personalise the kitchen and decorative finishes to suit contemporary tastes, while retaining original features such as beams and stone details.
