This two-bedroom mid-terraced Victorian home offers straightforward living near Accrington town centre, ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a low-entry purchase. The property is chain free, with a modern three-piece bathroom and double-glazed windows providing immediate comfort while you plan improvements.
