This recently refreshed Victorian mid-terrace on New Street in Halton offers an affordable, move-in-ready home for first-time buyers or those seeking a low-maintenance village base. Upgrades include new windows and doors, new consumer unit, new carpets and an attic hatch with ladder — so you benefit from recent work without immediate major bills. The living room’s open fire and period stone façade give authentic character alongside practical modern comforts.
Accommodation is compact but well laid out across two floors: two double bedrooms, a fitted bathroom, and a rear kitchen that opens to an enclosed yard. The small private yard and outhouse provide useful outdoor storage and a place to sit out, but the plot is very small and there is no front garden or forecourt — the house opens directly onto the pavement. Internal room sizes are modest, typical of terraced stock, so the house suits a couple, first-time buyer, or buy-to-let investor rather than a growing family needing extensive outdoor space.
Construction details reflect the house’s age: stone walls from before 1900 and traditional slate roof. Insulation in the walls is not apparent, which may mean higher heating costs or later retrofit work if you choose. Heating is a dual-fuel boiler and radiators (mineral and wood fuel capable), and mains services and excellent broadband/mobile connectivity support modern working-from-home needs. Council Tax is inexpensive and crime levels are low, supporting affordable running costs.
In short, 26 New Street is a characterful, cost-conscious opportunity in a popular village setting close to Lancaster and the M6. It’s ready to occupy with scope to personalise and improve over time, but buyers should note the small plot, compact rooms and likely need to consider wall insulation or other age-related maintenance in the future.
