3 bed semi-detached house for sale

East Main Street, Blackburn EH47

Set within a quiet and rarely available development built by Morrisons in the 1990s, this three bedroom home presents a fantastic opportunity to secure a well maintained property that’s been lovingly owned by the same family since new. With only two homes in the street changing hands over the past 30 years, this is a rare chance to become part of a close knit and established community.

Upon arrival, you're greeted by a charming south facing front garden, perfect for enjoying morning sunlight, which leads to the front door. Stepping inside, the entrance hallway offers a warm welcome, flowing effortlessly into the generously sized lounge. A large front window allows natural light to flood the space, while the layout comfortably accommodates both a sitting area and a dining table, making it ideal for relaxing or entertaining. A handy storage cupboard adds practicality without compromising the open feel.

Just off the lounge, the kitchen is a real highlight.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom comfortably hosts a king size bed with space to spare for bedside cabinets, a chest of drawers, or even a cosy reading nook. A fitted wardrobe enhances storage efficiency and keeps the room feeling open and airy. The peaceful rear aspect ensures a quiet and restful environment, perfect for unwinding after a long day.

This room also includes a built in wardrobe, providing valuable extra storage without taking up additional floor space.

The third bedroom is surprisingly versatile. While it can fit a double bed snugly, it also works well as a children’s room, a nursery, a home office, or even a hobby or craft room.

Its flexible size allows the new owner to adapt it to their lifestyle needs with ease.
