Summary - 48, Queens Road BB1 1QG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free two-bed ground-floor flat with communal gardens and low running costs..
Chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor flat, approx 560 sq ft
A chain-free, two-bedroom ground-floor flat with tidy communal gardens and compact, well-proportioned rooms — a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor. The flat occupies about 560 sq ft and offers a modern kitchen and bathroom, double glazing and a low annual ground rent of £10.
Practical details are clear: leasehold with approximately 91 years remaining, council tax band A (very cheap) and an EPC rating of E. The property’s position in a busy urban area gives good access to local schools, shops and frequent bus routes into Blackburn and surrounding towns.
Buyers should note some material issues: the heating information is inconsistent (a combi boiler is mentioned but records also list electric storage heaters), the EPC is middling and the neighbourhood records very high crime and higher local deprivation. The home suits someone looking for affordable single-level living or a buy-to-let opportunity who is comfortable addressing heating/energy upgrades and modest cosmetic works.
Overall this is a pragmatic, low-entry-price option with 91 years left on the lease and clear scope to improve energy performance and presentation to boost long-term value.
