The property is a two-bedroom terraced house located on Malcolm Street in Castleton, Rochdale. The location benefits from being close to Castleton village amenities, local schools (including Castleton Primary School and St Gabriel’s Roman Catholic Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), and commuter links via the nearby Castleton train station. This positive aspect contributes to a desirable location score.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in relatively good condition. The interior shows a recently modernised kitchen and bathroom, and the living areas are presented well. There is no obvious evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed, suggesting a reasonable condition score.

The property includes a small, enclosed rear garden with artificial turf. While not extensive, the presence of a garden is a positive feature for many buyers, contributing to a moderate land score.

Considering the list price of £140,000, the average house price in the area is significantly higher at £472,681, and the average price per square foot is £472.00. However, this property is considerably smaller (533.03 sqft) than the average in the area (1000 sqft). Nearby comparable properties on Malcolm Street sold for between £60,000 and £150,000. Given its size, condition, and location, the list price of £140,000 appears to be within a reasonable range for the market, though perhaps slightly on the higher end. Further analysis of comparable properties with similar square footage would be beneficial to refine this assessment.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
