A compact, newly renovated two-bedroom end-of-terrace in central Burnley, offered at an accessible price point. The property has been updated with a modern kitchen, new bathroom, gas central heating and UPVC double glazing, making it largely move-in ready for a buyer seeking a low-entry home or buy-to-let purchase. At about 556 sq ft the layout is modest but practical, with a small private yard and standard ceiling heights typical of a Victorian terrace.
The location gives easy access to the town centre, train station and UCLan, supporting commuter links to Manchester and local rental demand. Nearby primary schools are rated Good; local amenities are plentiful along nearby streets. Council tax is very low, which helps running costs.
There are several important considerations: the property is leasehold, so prospective buyers must check the lease length and any service charges. The area scores as very deprived with very high recorded crime rates — factors that can affect resale and rental values. The building is a pre-1900 solid-wall Victorian terrace and walls are likely uninsulated, so future insulating work may be needed to improve energy efficiency.
Overall, this is a priced-to-sell, turn-key Victorian terrace suited to a first-time buyer or investor looking for an affordable entry in Burnley. It offers immediate use with clear potential for modest value-add through targeted energy upgrades or cosmetic changes, but buyers should factor in location-related risks and leasehold checks before committing.
