This two-bedroom terraced house in Ince, Wigan, presents a mixed bag. Its location is a definite advantage, being close to local schools like St William’s Catholic Primary School (0.19km) and Ince Cofe Primary School (0.49km), as well as Ince Train Station (0.42km) providing convenient access to public transport. The proximity to local shops and its reasonably close proximity to Wigan town centre enhances its convenience. However, the property’s condition needs to be considered carefully. The photographs indicate that the property requires substantial renovation and modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom appear outdated and the interior finishes such as flooring and wall coverings show wear and tear. The property has minimal outdoor space only boasting a small paved yard for bins; there is no garden. Given its condition, a buyer would need to budget for considerable updating and refurbishment works. Overall, the property would likely appeal to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a project, who are willing to invest in renovations to improve the property’s value and appeal. Potential buyers should factor the cost of these works into their assessment of whether or not the asking price presents good value. The property itself appears structurally sound and in a decent location with regard to accessibility and local services. A buyer should carefully weigh the required refurbishment against the potential for capital appreciation after renovation. The nearby properties have considerable variation in price, although it’s difficult to fully assess the market value of properties without square footage information for those properties.

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