This mid-terraced Victorian three-bedroom house occupies an elevated position in Colne, offering a traditional layout with bay-windowed lounge, separate dining room and useful cellar storage. High ceilings and period details give the home character while modern double-glazed windows help with comfort and efficiency. The property suits a family seeking straightforward space close to shops, good primary schools and local amenities on North Valley Road.
The house provides practical living: lounge, sitting/dining room, fitted kitchen and a family bathroom serve three bedrooms above. A modest front forecourt and enclosed rear yard provide simple outdoor space low on maintenance. The long lease (871 years remaining) removes common leasehold timing concerns and the council tax band is very low, helping running costs.
Buyers should note the surrounding context: the wider area is very deprived with above-average crime rates and predominantly blue-collar terraces. The location attracts constrained renters and resale or rental values may be impacted by local socio-economic factors. There is no flood risk recorded.
Internally the property appears in average condition and offers clear scope for updating and cosmetic improvement to personalise the home or improve rental appeal. Structural or service checks are recommended, and the heating, electrics and appliances have not been tested here. For those wanting a period terrace with good space and long lease security, this is a practical family option with potential for value uplift through refurbishment.
