Set on a quiet cul-de-sac between Crawshawbooth and Rawtenstall, this Victorian mid-terrace offers move-in potential and scope to add value. The house features a generous 150 sq ft front bedroom, a spacious lounge and a large kitchen-diner that opens to a private south-facing patio — good for light and outdoor seating. The contemporary three-piece bathroom and double glazing are recent positives, while gas central heating provides reliable warmth.
Chain-free and with a long lease (949 years from 01/03/1920, c.843 years remaining), the property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a manageable refurbishment. At about 580 sq ft overall, the home is compact and designed across multiple storeys, so it performs best for buyers needing modest space in a well-connected town location. EPC C indicates reasonable energy performance for the age of the building.
Practical drawbacks are clear and should influence offer levels: the house needs renovation and some modernisation to reach its full potential, and the original sandstone external walls are assumed to lack insulation. The area is described as deprived with average local crime levels, although local schools are nearby and public transport (X43 bus) gives direct links to Manchester.
In short, this is a characterful, low-running-cost terrace with a south-facing patio and solid bones — a sensible buy for a buyer who plans targeted upgrades to increase comfort and value.
