Property Oracle says ..
Location: The property is located in Orrell, Wigan, which is in the North West of England. While specific amenities like shops and places of significance aren’t detailed, the proximity to several train stations (Gathurst, Pemberton, Orrell, Appley Bridge, and Wigan Wallgate) suggests reasonable transport links. The presence of several schools within a 1.5km radius, however, presents a mixed picture. Dean Trust Wigan has been rated as having serious weaknesses, while information on the others is incomplete. More information is needed for a complete assessment of the location’s desirability.
Condition: Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition. The interior shows signs of recent modernisation, with new flooring and a relatively updated kitchen. There are no immediately apparent signs of significant disrepair or the need for extensive renovation. However, a more thorough in-person inspection would be necessary to confirm this assessment fully.
Land: The property includes a small garden, which is a positive feature. The size is not specified, but the images show a manageable, enclosed space.
Price: The list price of £140,000 is significantly below the average price of £188,337 for the area. However, the average price per square foot (£220) is not directly comparable due to the lack of plot size information for this property and the nearby properties. The property’s size (678.13 sqft) is also smaller than the average (854 sqft) in the area. Considering the lower price and smaller size compared to the area average, and the generally good condition, the price could be considered reasonable, though more detailed comparative data on similar properties in the area would improve the accuracy of this assessment. The prices of nearby properties on Prescott Lane range from £44,950 to £108,000, which adds some context to the property’s listing price. However, without square footage data for these comparable properties, a definitive conclusion regarding the price’s reasonableness is difficult to reach.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
