This two-bedroom mid-terraced property in Farnworth, Bolton, is currently undergoing a substantial renovation. The provided photographs reveal a property that is far from complete. Key areas such as the living room, bathroom, and even aspects of the upstairs bedrooms are unfinished. While the exterior shows an updated front door and some cosmetic improvements, the interior reveals exposed wiring, unfinished plasterboard, and bare floors in multiple rooms. The property benefits from a relatively small front garden and a similarly small paved rear yard.

The location in Farnworth offers proximity to several primary and secondary schools, some of which have good Ofsted ratings. Transport links are reasonable, with relatively close access to several train stations including Moses Gate, Farnworth, and Bolton. However, the specific location on Plodder Lane may not be considered amongst the most desirable in Bolton.

The property’s list price of £120,000 needs consideration of the incomplete renovations. While other properties in the area have sold for higher prices, these appear to have been fully renovated and therefore are not directly comparable. Any potential buyer needs to fully account for all associated costs to complete the property to a habitable standard. They also need to take into account that purchasing a property in this condition is inherently risky. This property is clearly suitable for those looking to renovate a property, to finish off at their own speed or to a specific style. For buyers seeking a move-in-ready home, the considerable renovation requirements render it less appealing.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
