An affordable two-bedroom mid-terrace offering clear starter-home and buy-to-let potential in central Barrow. The house is freehold and economical to run (Council Tax Band A), with good local transport links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within walking distance.
Internally the layout is sensible: entrance vestibule, spacious through lounge and dining room, compact fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. A boarded attic gives useful storage or scope for conversion (subject to consents). The rear enclosed yard is low maintenance but small.
The property requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic updating, possible wall insulation and energy improvements, and period-style fixtures are dated. The glazing predates 2002 and walls are assumed uninsulated. The wider area is a very deprived, blue-collar terrace neighbourhood; this supports rental demand but may concern some owner-occupiers.
This is best suited to a first-time buyer willing to carry out upgrades or an investor targeting steady rental income. The price reflects the condition and size, giving scope to add value through reasonably straightforward refurbishment.
