This mid-terrace two-bedroom home in Millom has been recently modernised and presents a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or investors. The open-plan ground floor creates a bright, flexible living and dining space that flows into a contemporary kitchen. Upstairs offers a double and a single bedroom plus a modern shower room — a practical layout for everyday living or rental use.
Practical running costs are a clear strength: mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, combined with very cheap council tax (Band A). The property is freehold and comes with double glazing throughout, making it low-maintenance and ready to occupy or let immediately.
Constraints to note: the plot and rear yard are very small, so outdoor space is limited. The building dates from the 1930s–1940s and has cavity walls with no known added insulation, which could mean future insulation work to improve comfort and energy efficiency. Broadband speeds in the area are slow, which may affect home working.
Location is town-fringe with a mix of local amenities close by and several primary and secondary schools within easy reach (Ofsted ratings vary). The wider neighbourhood is described as deprived blue-collar terraces and local residents include endeavouring social renters — factors to consider for both live-in buyers and investors assessing rental demand and capital growth. Priced at £80,000, this property offers an affordable entry into the local market with clear potential after targeted improvements.
