Peter E Gilkes & Company says ..
Double-fronted, semi-detached cottage located in tranquil setting on a quiet lane with open fields to the rear. Includes five bedrooms, 3 reception rooms and large conservatory. Requires renovation and refurbishment but provides an exciting opportunity to create a family home in a desirable area.
Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached property located on Kem Mill Lane in Buckshaw & Whittle, Chorley, presents a mixed bag. The location is a definite positive. It is close to several well-regarded primary schools, each with a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating, and also within a short distance of the tranquil Cuerden Valley Regional Park, boosting the area’s appeal to families and outdoor enthusiasts. Commuting is facilitated by the proximity of several train stations. However, buyers should be aware of the area’s quieter nature, suggesting a possible absence of nearby shops and amenities.
The property’s condition is fair. The interior images show a property which is habitable but requires extensive renovation. While the structure appears sound, much of the interior décor and furnishings are dated, and potential buyers should factor in significant refurbishment costs.
The property benefits from some outdoor space, including a paved patio area and a conservatory, but additional detail on the land size and functionality is lacking. The images suggest the garden is modest and may not be suitable for those seeking a large outside space. The photographs do show evidence of some greenery which may suggest further space outside than is initially apparent.
The property’s asking price, given the requirement for extensive renovation and the lack of information about the actual plot size, is in the mid-range of other properties within the area. The cost of renovation needs to be factored into any potential purchase offer. A detailed structural survey is highly recommended before proceeding with any purchase.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
