A compact two-bedroom first-floor maisonette in Barrow Island, immediately opposite BAE Systems and within walking distance of town centre amenities and transport links. The flat is presented with carpets and neutral décor, uPVC double glazing and a combination boiler for hot water and heating stated in the internal description. The rear yard and small outhouse offer practical external storage and private access to a service lane.
This property suits buy-to-let investors or buyers seeking an affordable starter home. The footprint is modest (approx. 565 sq ft) with small-to-average rooms; the layout includes a ground-floor entrance and stairs to the lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a single bathroom. Council Tax band A and freehold tenure help keep running costs low.
Notable negatives are the location context and scale: the area is very deprived with high local crime statistics, and the street offers an urban outlook only. The property is an early 20th-century mid-terrace requiring some external cosmetic attention and likely periodic maintenance. Heating/fuel information is inconsistent in the data — a combination boiler is reported but other records list electric room heaters — buyers should verify the heating system and fuel type before purchase.
Overall this is a low-cost entry into the Barrow market, offering immediate rental potential due to proximity to a major employer. It will suit purchasers prepared for modest room sizes and some cosmetic updating, or investors seeking a straightforward, low-maintenance tenancy opportunity.
