Compact three‑bedroom property near schools and town centre, offered chain free.
Chain free three‑storey Victorian mid‑terrace with period features
Three bedrooms; compact rooms with sloped upper‑floor ceilings
Mains gas boiler and radiators; double glazing (install date unknown)
EPC rating D — likely needs energy improvements and insulation
Stone walls assumed uninsulated; scope for window and insulation upgrades
Leasehold tenure — check lease terms and any ground rent/service charges
Very high local crime rate and deprived area — affects insurance and demand
Minimal outdoor space; town‑centre location close to schools and amenities
Priced at £85,000 and offered chain free, this three‑storey Victorian mid‑terrace sits steps from Workington town centre and local schools. The property retains period features such as a bay window and high ceilings, and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (installation date unknown). Its compact layout across three floors provides practical starter accommodation or a straightforward buy‑to‑let opportunity.
There are clear improvement opportunities: the EPC is rated D and external stone walls are likely uninsulated, so replacing windows and adding insulation would improve comfort and running costs. The house appears clean and recently refreshed in places, but room sizes are modest and the upper floor has sloped ceilings, limiting usable space for some furniture layouts.
Buyers should note material downsides: the property is leasehold, located in a deprived area with very high local crime rates, and outdoor space is minimal. These factors will influence mortgage, insurance and tenant demand. For first‑time buyers prepared to prioritise location and affordability, or investors willing to carry targeted upgrades, this house offers a low entry price and potential to add value.
