A garden-fronted Victorian mid-terrace recently refreshed throughout, offered chain free — an affordable entry point into Darwen. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a newly fitted high-gloss kitchen; upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bright three-piece bathroom. Gas central heating (boiler with service history) and PVC double-glazed windows reduce immediate maintenance needs.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a low-entry purchase with immediate rental or move-in potential. The long lease (circa 999 years) and nominal ground rent make tenure straightforward; council tax costs are very low. The house footprint (about 691 sqft) is typical for a small-to-average mid-terrace and includes a small front garden and enclosed rear yard.
Be aware of local conditions: the area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime and a medium flooding risk. The property is on a busy residential street with nearby amenities and good transport links but sits within a constrained local housing market. There is an absentee landlord noted on the tenure information; prospective buyers should check legal details with their solicitor.
Overall this is a practical, recently renovated terrace that delivers immediate usability and value for money, with clear scope for personalization or rental income. Buyers should factor in local area challenges and verify serviceable systems during conveyancing and survey inspections.
