An affordable, chain-free three-bedroom semi detached in central Blackpool, offered as a practical purchase for a first-time buyer or small family. The house sits on a small plot with off-street parking, an enclosed rear garden and easy access to local shops and transport links — ideal for daily commuting.
Internally the layout is conventional and useable: hallway, lounge, separate dining room, modern kitchen and a family bathroom upstairs. The accommodation totals about 969 sq ft and retains period features such as a bay-windowed living room; some rooms show mid‑20th century finishes and would benefit from cosmetic updating to reach their full potential.
There are clear cost and safety considerations to weigh. The area has high crime rates and is classified as very deprived, and the property’s cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation which may increase heating costs. EPC band D is middling. These factors make the house a sensible buy for someone seeking an entry-level price point with scope to improve fabric, security and energy efficiency over time.
If you want an inexpensive, liveable home with immediate access to amenities, transport and sizable rooms, this property offers a quick, chain‑free purchase and good potential for value-add improvements. Viewings will suit buyers ready to invest some time and money into modernisation and insulation upgrades.
