Why Buy A Terrace With Two Bedrooms When You Can Have Three? This move-in-ready mid-terrace will make an affordable first time buy or a tenant-ready BTL, with more space than most - thanks to a spacious loft conversion.

The terraced streets just off Blackpool Road are always popular with first time buyers and investors alike. And it’s easy to see why, with affordable properties in a handy location. You’re close to the shops and only a few minutes walk to Haslam Park but it’s also quick and easy to get into town.

This three storey, three bedroom property is in great condition where you can move in and make yourselves at home.

The lounge has an attractive feature fireplace with a cast iron gas fire and there’s a modern fitted kitchen at the rear. The kitchen isn't huge but there is space for a small dining table under the stairs.

You won’t be hosting any lavish dinner parties on the dining table but it’s perfect for grabbing a quick lunch on the go or midweek meals.

There’s a small yard at the rear. It’s the one area that may benefit from a little TLC. Once freshened up with a bit of weeding and a lick of paint will be a lovely place to sit out with a cuppa.

The first floor has a large double bedroom, a single bedroom and the family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

The loft has been converted into a 3rd bedroom. It's a good size double with Velux windows letting in plenty of light and lots of storage space in the eaves.

If you have a car there’s plenty of on street parking. If you don’t have a car there’s a choice of local shops, pubs and cafés on Blackpool Road, with Tesco Express less than 10 minutes walk away.

If you need to head into town for work, to hit the shops or catch up with friends it’s only a 35 minute walk or there’s plenty of buses - the journey taking less than half an hour.

Halsam Park is only a couple of minutes away, with plenty of activities for all ages and fitness levels to enjoy. You’re also only a couple of minutes away from the canal. There’s even a 7km circular trail which starts in the park and takes you along the canal path out into the countryside.

This versatile property will suit couples and young families, so it’s good to know that St Andrews CofE Primary School is rated “Outstanding” by Ofsted. Even better, it’s less than 10 minutes walk away so you can kiss goodbye to school run stress.

Older kids will have a little further to travel to reach Ashton Community Science College. It's a “Good” school and is less than a 20 minute walk or a 5 minute bike ride away.

If you’re looking for a first time buy that will meet both your immediate and long term needs, this three bedroom, three storey mid-terrace could be perfect.

The loft conversion sets it apart from its mainly 2 bedroom near neighbours, making it a great first step on the housing ladder or an easy addition to a buy to let portfolio.
