Property Oracle says ..
This property is a former church building located on Water Street in Wigton, Cumbria. The building itself displays clear signs of significant age and historical character. The exterior is constructed from stone, showing some weathering but generally retaining its structural integrity. The exterior photographs show the structure has some features, and the stone work appears to be intact. However, the interior images reveal a property in a state of significant disrepair. A substantial amount of demolition or renovation has already begun. The floor has been ripped up, and the walls show substantial damage and deterioration, and many of the rooms are in a state of significant disrepair, making it very clear that the property requires extensive work before it could be considered habitable. The building has original features such as stained-glass windows, wooden panelling, and a pulpit that may hold historic value, but these features are also in need of restoration and preservation. The site also includes a small garden area that seems somewhat neglected, requiring attention and landscaping. The listing price seems relatively competitive, but potential buyers must factor in the enormous costs involved in bringing this property up to a livable standard. The location in Wigton places it within a town that benefits from proximity to schools and a train station. However, the scope of the renovation work and lack of specific details such as square footage makes a precise appraisal of value difficult. A potential buyer should undertake a thorough structural survey and cost estimate before making a purchase decision. The amount of land is small, the property is in need of significant repairs and is located in a small market town. Overall, the property presents itself as a challenging but potentially rewarding renovation project for someone with time, resources, and expertise in restoration.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
