This traditional Victorian mid-terraced property is located on Wellington Street, St. Johns, Blackburn. The property is currently used as an office but has the potential for residential conversion, subject to planning permission. It’s situated on a parade of businesses close to Blackburn town centre.

The property appears to be in fair condition, though it requires some modernisation and updating. The interior photos show dated decor and carpeting, and there is evidence of some wear and tear in the basement. The bathroom fixtures seem outdated. While structurally sound, a significant amount of work would be needed to bring it up to modern standards.

The property has a small rear yard, which is not extensive. It’s more of a small, unkempt area than a substantial garden.

Considering the property’s condition, the small yard, and its location near the town centre, the list price of £150,000 seems slightly high. The average price per square foot in the area is £50, and while the property’s size is 1353.67 sqft, the lack of a proper garden and the need for significant renovation works would likely reduce its desirability compared to other properties in the area. The average house price in the area is £83,500, significantly lower than the list price. While the proximity to Blackburn town centre might be a positive, the condition and lack of a substantial garden would likely impact the price. Nearby comparable properties on Wellington Street are listed between £120,000 and £137,000, suggesting the £150,000 asking price could be negotiated.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
