1 Bed Flat To Rent

Property Reference: 2431889.

Were pleased to offer this lovely top floor, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom flat in a historic stone building, at a great location in Bacup town centre, within easy walking distance of all shops and local amenities.

The flat was painted and decorated throughout a year ago, just before the current tenant moved in. She is now moving out of the area, and so this flat will be available to rent from 14th/15th April. 

The property benefits from a private allocated parking space, and is offered unfurnished and in great condition. See pictures supplied by  tenant a couple of weeks ago. Please note than any furniture, appliances (that are not built-in) or personal items shown in any of the pictures that accompany this listing, are owned by the current tenant, and unless arrangements are negotiated with her, then the flat will be empty by 27th April.

Heating is currently via electric Economy 7 storage heaters, and hot water by electric immersion with timer. There's also an electric shower. 

There is currently no gas in the flat, but a gas main has recently been run to the building and have been trying to get gas central heating installed to all 5 flats in this block since late 2020, but it is subject to grant funding - and the rules keep changing! There is loft insulation, but an application has also been made for it to be made thicker - to retain more heat. The landlord is continuing to chase these heating and insulation improvement works, but cannot guarantee if and when they will be completed. New rules start in April, so keeping fingers crossed!

The building has actually undergone significant refurbishment and repair since January 2022, including 32 new traditional sliding sash double glazed historic timber windows, roof and wall repairs, new gutters and downpipes.

There is a courtyard at the rear of the property that the tenants can make use of, especially in the warmer months.

Please note that this flat is suitable for working individuals, or couples, who can provide satisfactory references. Children are not permitted, and no pets are allowed. All tenants must be non-smokers. Sorry, but we do not generally accept tenants in receipt of benefits, other than as a result of health related issues (where a guarantor would be necessary) as generally applicants claiming Universal Credit would not pass our comprehensive referencing process - nor enable us to obtain any rent guarantee insurance. 

There are just 5 flats in the building, all currently occupied with friendly single tenants, both male and female, some of whom have been there a while, and ideally looking for a similar tenant, or working couple, for this property too. 

Viewing is highly recommended, and will either be with the current tenant, or another of our tenants in the building. The landlord is also NRLA accredited, so you can be sure that you will be dealing with a landlord who is competent, reliable, friendly, courteous and professional in his dealing with every tenant.
