A traditional three-bedroom mid-terrace offering 978 sq ft of living space in Blackpool's FY1 district. The house retains period character — red brick façade, bay windows and some original detailing — and benefits from double glazing (installation date unknown) and mains gas central heating. The layout includes a large lounge, separate family room/diner and a family bathroom, with small front and rear gardens. Tenure is freehold and there is no recorded flood risk.
This property suits a first-time buyer or an investor prepared to carry out modernization. The interior requires updating and some cosmetic repair (noted flooring damage and general wear), so there is clear potential to add value through refurbishment and layout improvements such as opening the plan. The plot is small and the garden limited, so outdoor space is modest.
Be realistic about location factors: this pocket is classified as very deprived with high local crime levels and constrained local aspiration. Nearby schools are mixed in performance (some Good, some Requires Improvement). On the positive side the area offers strong mobile signal and fast broadband, basic amenities close by, and very low council tax, which helps running costs.
At the asking price of £95,000 this is an affordable entry into Blackpool property, offering scope for renovation or rental income. Buyers should budget for modernization works and consider the impact of area-wide socio-economic factors on resale and lettings. Viewing recommended to assess condition and potential firsthand.
