Property Oracle says ..
Meadowvale Cottage, situated on Upholland Road in Billinge, Wigan, presents as a substantial detached stone property offering a blend of character and potential. The exterior is attractive, showcasing well-maintained stonework, landscaping, and a sizeable double garage. The property’s location in Billinge offers a balance between rural tranquility and convenient access to amenities, with Orrell train station within reach. Several well-regarded schools are also nearby, making it potentially attractive to families.
Inside, the property features period features like exposed beams and fireplaces, however the decor and fittings appear dated. While the layout is spacious and includes features such as multiple fireplaces and a substantial kitchen, a significant update is needed to match modern living standards. The carpet throughout, and wall coverings present an opportunity for significant upgrading. There are various rooms with different carpet textures and conditions.
The extensive gardens and private driveway enhance the property’s appeal, providing ample outdoor space and privacy. The double garage is another key feature. Overall, Meadowvale Cottage represents a unique opportunity for a buyer seeking a project. With necessary updates, it could become a truly impressive family home in a desirable location. However, potential buyers should carefully evaluate the renovation costs alongside the asking price to make an informed decision.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
