The listed price of £240,000 seems somewhat high considering the necessary renovations. While comparable properties in the area exist, the condition of this property and lack of modern features would likely require substantial investment. In comparison with neighboring properties that appear to be in better condition and have sold at a higher price, the value is impacted. The lack of square footage data in the nearby listings makes precise comparison difficult.

The property shows signs of needing significant modernisation and repair. While some areas like the bathroom appear recently updated, other rooms, particularly bedrooms and the living areas, require extensive work, including re-plastering, repainting, and general refurbishment. The overall presentation suggests it is far from move-in ready.

The property is situated in Hollins, Oldham, which benefits from relatively close proximity to several schools, including Lyndhurst Primary and Nursery School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Oldham Hulme Grammar School. The presence of nearby train stations, although requiring a short journey, also adds to the convenience of the location. However, the area’s overall desirability and amenities compared to more affluent areas in Greater Manchester would need to be considered. This is reflected in the nearby street prices, which vary considerably.

The property includes a garden, but its size and condition appear modest, and its current state may require significant work. Although it is larger than many urban properties, a score reflecting only moderate land size is given.
