The list price of £255,000 seems reasonably competitive given the location and size of the property, though the need for renovation could influence some buyers. Comparing to similar properties on Sweet Briar Close and nearby streets (considering the lack of precise square footage information for comparables), the price falls within the expected range. The requirement for modernization might slightly lower the perceived value for some, but ultimately the price appears to reflect the current market in the area.

The property appears to be structurally sound from the provided images. However, the interior requires modernization and updating. Features like the dated wallpaper, carpets, and bathroom fixtures suggest a need for renovation, reducing the condition score. While not in disrepair, the overall aesthetic is dated and would likely deter buyers unless they anticipate renovation.

The property is situated in Shawclough, Rochdale, which benefits from being close to local amenities including schools and shops. The proximity to well-regarded primary and secondary schools (Shawclough Community Primary and Falinge Park High School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) adds significant value. Train stations are within reasonable distance, though not immediately on the doorstep. The quiet cul-de-sac location is also a positive aspect. However, Rochdale town centre itself may not be considered a top-tier location by all buyers.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive feature for many buyers, scoring above average in this respect. Though the garden appears somewhat overgrown in the photos, its size seems relatively adequate for a house of this type. It’s not exceptionally large, but neither is it minimal.
