Set on an elevated plot with panoramic front and countryside rear views, this stone-fronted semi-detached house offers flexible three-level living and clear potential for improvement. The layout includes a spacious lounge, fitted dining kitchen, basement storage, two main bedrooms plus a large attic room suitable as a third bedroom or hobby space, and a four-piece bathroom.
The property is double-glazed and has gas central heating, and benefits from a landscaped rear garden with Indian stone patio and flower beds. It is offered freehold and chain-free, making it straightforward to purchase. At about 1,140 sq ft the home is a good size for first-time buyers or small families seeking character and scope to add value.
Notable issues are honest and straightforward: the kitchen dates from mid-20th century and will need renovation, some rooms are small to medium in size, and the house sits in an area with higher crime and relative deprivation, which may affect resale or rental yields. The plot is small and the property will suit buyers prepared to modernise rather than those seeking a turnkey finish.
In short, this traditional Victorian stone house is ideal for someone looking for character, countryside views and a project with clear upside. Its elevated position, good local schools and excellent transport links to Rochdale and Rawtenstall add practical appeal for everyday living.
