This mid-terrace Victorian house on Devonshire Street is offered with no chain and suits buyers seeking a straightforward refurbishment project or rental investment. The property retains period stone frontage, two double bedrooms and two reception rooms, providing a flexible layout and clear scope to add value through cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements.
Practical features include a fitted kitchen, first-floor three-piece bathroom, mains gas boiler with radiators, double glazing and an enclosed rear yard. The house is leasehold, Council Tax Band A and has an EPC rating of D — useful baseline information for future tenants or buyers but indicates room to improve running costs and comfort.
Notable concerns are its renovation status, assumed lack of wall insulation (cavity walls as built), and the property's location in a very deprived area with very high local crime levels. On-street parking only and a small rear yard limit external space. Investors should factor refurbishment, security upgrades and potential tenancy demand into acquisition costs.
For an investor or first-time buyer willing to carry out targeted works, the property offers strong commuter links, local amenities and nearby schools, making it a practical rental or entry-level purchase in Accrington once updated.
