Description

Ben Rose Estate Agents are pleased to present this three-bedroom mid-terrace property situated in a desirable area of Bamber Bridge. This home, offered with no chain, presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers eager to enter the property market. While the property would benefit from some updating, it serves as a blank canvas for new owners to personalize to their tastes. Ideally located, it is just a short drive from Preston and is surrounded by local schools, shops, and amenities. The nearby Bamber Bridge train station offers convenient rail connections, with easy access to the M6 and M61 motorways. Upon entering, you will find an entrance hall leading to the spacious lounge, which features a front-facing window and a gas fireplace, providing ample room for a sofa set and additional furnishings. At the rear, the kitchen and dining area offer generous space with under-stair storage and room for a family dining table. The kitchen is fitted with a variety of wall and base units and provides direct access to the rear garden. The first floor comprises three bedrooms: two generous doubles and a single, allowing for versatile use as additional sleeping accommodation or a home office. Completing the interior is a three-piece family bathroom equipped with a stand-in shower. Externally, the property boasts a good-sized rear garden primarily laid to lawn, featuring a pathway leading to a seating area. The garden is enclosed by tall hedging for privacy. The front yard requires minimal maintenance and has potential for conversion into off-road parking, subject to necessary permissions. This property represents an appealing project for first-time buyers looking to create a home tailored to their preferences.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom mid-terrace property in Bamber Bridge offers a compelling opportunity for a first-time buyer. Priced at £129,950, it stands out as a cheap option compared to the local average of £225/sqf, coming in at £183/sqf. This 18.6% discount on local pricing makes it an attractive acquisition for those looking to invest in a project with potential.

While the home does require updating, the dated interiors provide a blank canvas for personalization. With a medium renovation scale, prospective buyers can expect to invest between £30,000 and £60,000 to bring the property up to modern standards. The current all-in costs look tight against local benchmarks, so careful budgeting will be essential. However, the good location, excellent garden, and overall solid structure suggest that with the right vision, this home can be transformed into a wonderful living space.
