Three generous bedrooms with flexible layout

This three-bedroom terraced home in Whitebirk offers practical space and clear investment potential. The property benefits from a new boiler installed in 2022, a modern kitchen and bathroom, and gas central heating. At roughly 790 sq ft with a small garden, it suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a straightforward purchase and rental income (estimated £800 pcm).
The layout provides a dual-aspect living room, separate kitchen and three bedrooms upstairs. There is potential to extend and create driveway parking subject to planning (STPP), and the rear garden and sheltered patio provide outdoor space for families. Close access to the M65, local shops and Blackburn Hospital adds commuter convenience.
Buyers should note material negatives clearly: the area has very high crime levels and is very deprived, the plot and overall size are small, and the property’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated. Council Tax is low (Band A), and flood risk is none, but buyers may want to budget for insulation or further modernisation despite the updated boiler.
Overall this is a practical, affordable freehold opportunity for those prepared to accept the location’s challenges and invest modestly to unlock value.
