Property Oracle says ..
This semi-detached bungalow in Wigan is located on Lyndon Avenue, Shevington With Lower Ground. The property benefits from being close to several primary and secondary schools which all have a good Ofsted rating. Shevington High School and St Bernadette’S Catholic Primary School are both within a 1km radius. The area also has good transport links with several train stations within a reasonable distance, including Gathurst (2.03km).
The property itself is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow with a total area of 612.47 sqft. Based on the images provided, the property is in need of modernisation. The décor is dated, and some areas show signs of wear and tear. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly in need of updating. The property does however have a garden, which is a positive feature.
Considering the average house price in the area is £259,700 and the average price per sqft is £269, the asking price of £195,000 seems reasonable, especially considering the condition of the property and the need for modernisation. However, nearby comparable properties on Lyndon Avenue have sold for between £125,000 and £275,000, indicating some price variability in the area. The lack of plot size information makes a definitive statement on value difficult.
The property is a good investment opportunity for someone looking for a project. With some modernisation, the property could significantly increase in value.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
