This well-presented two-bedroom semi offers straightforward city living close to Preston city centre and the train station. The layout includes a hallway, lounge with study area, modern kitchen, utility space and a recently fitted luxury shower room. Two double bedrooms sit on the first floor; overall floor area is about 756 sq ft.
Externally the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an elevated tiered rear garden that’s low-maintenance and private. The house is a period-built (c.1900–1929) semi with traditional character features such as a fireplace and built-in shelving in the living room.
Practical considerations: the home sits in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate, and the plot is small. Walls are cavity construction with assumed no insulation, so there may be scope (and cost) to improve thermal performance. Council tax is very cheap, broadband and mobile signal are strong.
This property will suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an affordable, ready-to-move-in home with city access and modest outdoor space, and who are comfortable buying in an area with higher deprivation and local safety concerns. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and finish.
