This extended end-of-terrace Victorian house offers a pragmatic, move-in ready option for first-time buyers or investors. The property benefits from a rear kitchen extension, neutral décor and a generously-sized reception room that suits combined living and dining use. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned for the overall footprint and the shower room is functional for everyday use.
Practical advantages include fast broadband, very low local crime and no flood risk, all useful for rental or owner-occupier peace of mind. The small enclosed forecourt and modest rear yard limit outdoor space but reduce maintenance. The end-of-terrace position gives a bit more privacy than a mid-terrace.
Notable considerations: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining: 900 years) and sits in an area classed as deprived with constrained renter demographics, which affects long-term local market dynamics. Internally some features are dated (patterned ceiling, glass panel doors) and there is scope to modernise to increase value. The overall footprint (approx. 758 sq ft) is compact — suitable as a starter home or rental rather than a large-family house.
For buyers seeking straightforward, low-fuss accommodation with clear rental or first-home potential, this property represents a sensible and affordable entry point in Leigh. Early viewing will show the balance of usable living space and potential to add value with selective updates.
