This three-bedroom semi-detached house located on Seymour Grove in Farnworth, Bolton, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges for potential buyers. The property’s location is a strong point. It’s within reasonable proximity to several well-regarded primary schools (Highfield, Our Lady of Lourdes, and Mount St Joseph), all with ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings, making it an appealing option for families. Train stations in Bolton and Farnworth provide convenient transport links. While the area might not be considered a premium location within Greater Manchester, it offers a satisfactory balance of convenience and affordability.

The condition of the property is where the assessment becomes more nuanced. The exterior seems relatively well-maintained, but the internal images reveal a property that is in need of significant modernisation. The décor is dated, with some rooms showing wear and tear. The kitchen and bathrooms, while functional, look older and could benefit from an update. This could translate to immediate renovation costs for the next homeowner.

The property boasts a garden, an appealing feature for many buyers, particularly families. Although the exact size isn’t available, the photos suggest a decent-sized garden offering outdoor space.

Regarding the price, at £175,000, the property is priced reasonably, at least when compared to some neighbouring properties, yet the lack of detailed information regarding square footage of the nearby properties limits the ability to make a conclusive analysis of the price per square foot. The need for updating should be factored into potential buyers’ decision. In conclusion, this property offers a suitable family home, but requires renovation investment to achieve its full potential.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
