These residents couldn't quite believe they were living on the cheapest road in all of Lancashire
No, we're not talking about a white Christmas, but rather a house for less than £25,000. In today's property market, a house selling for £25,000 might conjure up non-awe inspiring images of disrepair, damp and in a location that's better off staying clear of.
Meadow Street has access to it all. A local Aldi, Home Bargains, McDonald's and even a trampoline park. Two rows of terrace houses line the street with ample parking spaces. Yet there was maybe one or two cars that seemed to take up a spot on the entire road. This was echoed by newcomer to the street Muhammad Choudary who has lived on Meadow Street for the last three years. When asked what he thought of living on the same street where a property could sell for £25,000 he told me he couldn't believe that was true.
"Because I have interest in property I look at the prices and I noticed that before the pandemic there are different prices. In Lancashire, there's so many cheaper properties in Accrington, Burnley, Blackburn, very cheap but now, it's equal."
