Summary - 130 DOWNHAM STREET BLACKBURN BB2 6NY
3 bed 1 bath House
Affordable period home with clear scope for modernisation and value uplift.
3 bedrooms and two reception rooms, about 1,152 sq ft
This Victorian mid-terrace on Downham Street offers a practical, well-sized starter home for first-time buyers. With three bedrooms, two reception rooms and about 1,152 sq ft of living space, the house combines period character—bay window, high ceilings and an original fireplace—with everyday family layout. The single shower room benefits from underfloor heating; the rear garden is low maintenance and easy to manage.
The property is liveable but suited to buyers who want to personalise and update. Built around 1900, it has double glazing and gas central heating to radiators, yet there is scope for cosmetic modernisation throughout to increase comfort and value. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low, and excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working.
Location is a strong selling point: close to Blackburn town centre shops, cafes, Corporation Park and a range of schools including highly rated local options. Good motorway links make commuting straightforward. Be aware the area records high deprivation levels; the plot is small and there is only one bathroom, which may be a consideration for growing families.
Overall, this is a budget-friendly, characterful terrace that will suit a buyer wanting a ready-to-move-into base with clear potential to add value through sensible improvement works.
