A Fantastic Refurbishment Opportunity in a Convenient Rawtenstall Location

Situated within easy walking distance of Rawtenstall Town Centre, this mid-stone terrace property presents an outstanding opportunity for investors, developers, builders, and buyers seeking a project with significant scope to add value.

Having been unoccupied for many years, the property now requires complete and comprehensive refurbishment throughout, offering purchasers the chance to renovate and modernise to their own specification. With a realistic guide price of £80,000, the property represents an attractive proposition for those looking to create a profitable investment, resale opportunity, or long-term home.

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance vestibule leading into a generously proportioned lounge. Beyond the lounge is the kitchen area, which in turn provides access to a useful utility space and the rear yard.

Externally, the enclosed rear yard benefits from two brick-built storage outbuildings and gated access to a rear service alley.

To the first floor is a spacious principal bedroom together with a family bathroom. A staircase rises to the second floor attic room, which has previously been utilised as bedroom accommodation and is complemented by a substantial eaves storage area.

Location

Rawtenstall is one of Rossendale's most popular market towns, offering an excellent range of amenities including supermarkets, independent retailers, cafés, bars, restaurants, leisure facilities and healthcare services. The town has developed a vibrant social scene with a variety of eateries, traditional pubs and nightlife options.

Families are well served by a selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools within the surrounding area, while commuters benefit from excellent transport links. The A56/M66 corridor provides convenient access to Manchester, Bury, Burnley and the wider motorway network, making the area increasingly popular with both owner-occupiers and tenants alike.

The town is also surrounded by attractive countryside, providing easy access to walking routes, cycling trails and outdoor recreation, including the nearby Rossendale Valley and surrounding Pennine landscapes.

Investment Potential

Properties of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to acquire at such an attractive entry price point. Subject to the necessary refurbishment works, purchasers have the opportunity to significantly enhance both the property's market value and rental potential. The versatile accommodation, convenient location and substantial scope for improvement make this an ideal project for investors, builders, developers, landlords and ambitious owner-occupiers seeking to create a bespoke home.

Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, location and considerable potential on offer.
