About this home
SUMMARY For sale - a two-bedroom mid terraced house in a cul de sac position in Bacup, offered with no onward chain and sold via the modern method of auction.
The property is a clear fixer upper and will appeal to buyers looking for a project. On the ground floor there is a good-sized front reception room with large window allowing in plenty of natural light. The separate kitchen provides space for fitted units and appliances, with room to reconfigure and modernise.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom with three-piece suite, all requiring refurbishment but offering straightforward layouts for redesign. Décor throughout is dated, with areas of unfinished plaster and worn floor coverings, giving a blank canvas for complete cosmetic improvement.
Outside, a walled rear yard offers low-maintenance outdoor space with potential for seating, storage or landscaping.
Mersey Street is well placed for Bacup town centre, with everyday amenities, supermarkets and independent shops within easy reach. Local green space includes nearby Moorlands Park and access to the wider Rossendale Valley for walking and cycling.
For transport, Bacup is served by regular bus services towards Rawtenstall, Rochdale and Burnley, connecting with rail links to Manchester and beyond; journeys to Manchester city centre from nearby stations such as Todmorden or Rochdale can be around 35-45 minutes by train. Several primary and secondary schools are located within the Bacup area, making this a practical base for families or commuters seeking a project property with long-term potential.
