Considering the need for renovations, and comparison to similar properties on Barkerhouse Road and surrounding streets with prices ranging from £95,000 to £160,000, the listing price is positioned reasonably. The property’s potential and location mitigate the costs associated with the necessary modernisation, making it a potentially sound investment for someone willing to undertake renovations.

The property appears to be in need of some modernisation and updating. The interior photos reveal dated decor, worn carpets, and some signs of potential damp or water damage. While structurally sound, significant cosmetic improvements and potential repairs are needed to bring the property up to a higher standard.

The property benefits from its proximity to several good schools, including Great Marsden St John’s Primary School and Pendle Vale College, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The presence of Pendle Community High School, an ‘Outstanding’ school, further enhances the area’s appeal to families. Train stations are within a reasonable distance, offering connections to other towns and cities. While Nelson may not be a bustling metropolis, the location is convenient for families and commuters, and the proximity to other amenities scores well.

The property includes a garden, though it appears relatively small and could benefit from some landscaping. It offers some outdoor space, but it is not extensive. The size is modest compared to properties with larger plots.
