Property Oracle says ..

This four-bedroom detached bungalow in Smithills, Bolton, presents a unique opportunity, but also substantial challenges. The property’s location is a strong selling point, offering proximity to highly-rated primary schools and relatively convenient access to train stations. However, the images reveal that the property is in significant need of modernisation and repair. Every room shown requires updating; from dated fittings, such as the bathrooms, to the worn interior and cluttered spaces. This extensive refurbishment is not reflected in the provided list price, which appears somewhat overvalued given the required work. The lack of clear information about plot size and a comparative lack of data about nearby properties makes a complete and accurate analysis more difficult. Potential buyers should carefully weigh the cost of renovations against the property’s location and long-term potential. A thorough survey and detailed costings for renovation would be essential before making an offer. While the location is an attractive point, the considerable undertaking of complete renovation needs to be considered. A reduced asking price would make this property more competitive and attractive in the current market.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
