Ready-to-let two-bed terrace near Royal Blackburn Hospital, sold at online auction.
Newly plastered throughout and new carpets and flooring
A recently refreshed two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace, offered freehold and sold via secure online auction. The house has been newly plastered throughout, with a new kitchen, new bathroom, new carpets and flooring, making it ready to occupy or to let with minimal immediate work. Gas central heating and uPVC double glazing are already fitted.
Situated close to Royal Blackburn Hospital and within easy reach of Blackburn town centre and the M65, the location suits commuters, hospital staff or landlords seeking strong rental demand. The property includes a small rear yard with new stone surfacing and sits in a street of traditional stone-fronted terraces.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area is classified as very deprived with a high crime rate, and the property will be sold at auction — terms and secure online bidding conditions apply. The stone walls are original with assumed no cavity insulation and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, so further insulation or energy upgrades may be desirable.
This home is best suited to first-time buyers wanting an affordable starter home or investors looking for a low-entry investment with immediate lettable condition. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low, but purchasers should allow budget for any longer-term energy improvements or cosmetic personalization.
