This three-bedroom Victorian terrace on Burnley Road offers straightforward, affordable entry to Colne’s housing market. At about 874 sqft the layout includes two reception rooms, a modern kitchen and a recently fitted family bathroom — practical spaces for everyday living and first-time buyers seeking move-in-ready accommodation.
The property keeps period character with a stone facade and simple front garden, and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Nearby primary schools rated ‘Good’ and local amenities are within walking distance, making the location convenient for families and commuters. The home is sold with no onward chain for a quicker purchase process.
Buyers should be aware of local factors: the neighbourhood records higher crime levels and the wider area is described as blue-collar terraces — factors to consider for family safety and long-term resale. The original stone walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy performance may be below modern standards and some thermal upgrades could be desirable.
Internally the house presents a mix of modern fittings and dated elements. While the kitchen and bathroom are contemporary, other rooms and the small rear garden will suit those happy to do light updating or cosmetic improvements. The council tax is very low and the property’s size and layout also give clear rental or investment potential for those seeking income.
Overall this mid-terrace offers strong value: classic Victorian character, essential modern fittings and a chain-free sale, balanced against local crime and likely insulation or upgrade needs. It will suit first-time buyers wanting a ready-to-move-in home with scope for future improvement or investors targeting steady rental demand.
