This chain-free, freehold three-bedroom end terrace on Birtwistle Avenue is a practical buy for a first-time buyer or investor seeking value. The house sits on a decent plot with a large rear garden and countryside views, offering outdoor space and scope for extension or landscaping. A new boiler installed a year ago reduces immediate major expenditure.
Internally the layout is generous with a spacious lounge/dining room and three bedrooms, but the kitchen, bathroom and general décor require updating. The property’s 808 sq ft footprint and post‑war construction provide a solid, uncomplicated canvas for refurbishment; buyers should budget for modernisation works. The front garden could potentially be converted to off‑road parking subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.
Location-wise the home sits in an industrious, deprived area where local services and schools are mixed; several nearby primary and secondary schools have Good ratings, though some local schools require improvement. Crime is average; transport links, mobile signal and broadband are good. This is a value-led purchase: straightforward, with clear upside for anyone willing to renovate.
