This two-bedroom mid-terrace offers an affordable entry into Accrington with a modern kitchen, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. The layout is traditional and practical, with two reception rooms, a fitted bathroom and a small low-maintenance rear yard with an outbuilding for storage. The property is well presented internally and ready to occupy with minimal immediate work.
The lease is long (about 839 years remaining) and running costs are favourable — council tax is very cheap and mains gas heating keeps bills reasonable. Commuters benefit from quick access to the M65 and Accrington town centre, shops and public transport within walking distance. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working or streaming.
Buyers should note material local and property considerations. The area records very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived; prospective purchasers may want to investigate local safety and investment prospects. The external walls are cavity as built with no fitted insulation (assumed), the EPC is D, and the terrace was constructed mid-20th century, so further thermal improvements or targeted upgrades could be needed to improve efficiency.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a low-cost starter home, a downsizer wanting central convenience, or an investor targeting steady rental demand near transport links. The compact garden limits outdoor use but keeps maintenance low; viewings are recommended for anyone wanting practical, centrally-located accommodation with clear potential to add value.
