Property Oracle says ..
This property in Longton, Lancashire, presents a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a significant landholding in a semi-rural setting. The listing describes the property as development land, encompassing approximately 2.3 acres. The aerial photographs reveal a site with existing greenhouses and outbuildings, currently in a state of disrepair, surrounded by extensive greenery. The absence of a habitable dwelling indicates the need for comprehensive renovation or new construction. The location offers a balance of rural tranquility and proximity to the amenities of Longton village, including nearby schools and transport links. However, the lack of immediate neighbouring properties and the undeveloped nature of the land could be considered both positive and negative attributes depending on buyer preferences. The existing structures on site appear dilapidated and require significant refurbishment or demolition. The £700,000 asking price requires careful consideration. Whilst the land itself has potential value, the need for extensive development works will significantly impact the overall cost. Prospective buyers would need to thoroughly investigate the planning permissions, building regulations and undertake detailed cost assessments before making a purchasing decision. The lack of immediate comparables highlights the uniqueness of this property, making accurate valuation challenging without further professional appraisals.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
