Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom terraced house located on Poolstock Lane in Wigan, Greater Manchester, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges for potential buyers. The property’s location offers some advantages, with relatively close proximity to Wigan North Western train station and several primary schools. This makes it potentially appealing to families or commuters. However, the immediate surroundings appear somewhat less desirable, and the absence of detailed information on local amenities limits a full assessment of the area’s desirability.
The property itself is in need of significant modernisation. The provided photographs reveal dated interiors, including carpets, wallpaper, and kitchen and bathroom fixtures. While structurally sound, significant investment will be required to bring the property up to modern standards. The small paved rear garden offers limited outdoor space.
The list price of £120,000 appears to be in line with similar properties in the area, particularly considering the need for renovation. However, the lack of a larger garden or other desirable features might make it less competitive compared to properties offering more modern amenities or larger plots. Ultimately, this property presents a potential investment opportunity for buyers willing to undertake renovation work, but it is crucial to factor in the costs involved before making a purchase decision. A thorough survey is highly recommended to identify any potential structural issues or hidden costs.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
