Summary - 4 ESSEX STREET DARWEN BB3 3JF
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Character home with large rear yard and close town access.
Victorian stone facade with original period features
A garden-fronted Victorian mid-terrace with genuine scope for improvement and practical living space. The house keeps period character — stone facade, bay window and a feature fireplace — across two reception rooms and two bedrooms. The footprint is around 820 sq ft with a small front garden and a notably large rear yard that adds useful outdoor space.
Positioned in central Darwen, the home is a short walk to the town centre and public transport links, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for modern working patterns. Several primary schools rated Good are nearby, making the property suitable for first-time buyers or investors seeking lettable accommodation in a well-connected location.
Buyers should note material considerations: the area scores high for deprivation and local crime is above average; tenure is not stated and should be confirmed; the plot is small and the house is average-sized internally. The building appears to have renovation potential rather than being fully modernised — prospective purchasers should expect some updating and to verify services, fixtures and structural condition before committing.
Overall, this is a practical, characterful terrace offering affordable entry into Darwen with good transport links, schools nearby and a large rear yard. It will suit buyers looking to personalise a Victorian property or investors targeting steady rental demand, provided they factor in location context and likely refurbishment costs.
