Description

This two-bedroom mid-terrace house is offered as a renovation project and is described as suitable for cash buyers. The ground floor has an entrance porch, a lounge and a kitchen/dining room with under-stairs storage. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom with a bath, wash basin and WC. The listing also describes a loft with insulation, a Velux window and a pull-down ladder, but says it is not boarded. Outside, there is a rear garden. The property is close to Blackpool town centre, transport links and Blackpool North station. The seller states that the property is freehold, subject to confirmation by solicitors, and that the condition of services and included items has not been verified.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £60,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced below the local average per square foot, giving buyers a relatively cheap entry point for a project. The lounge is cleared, and the generous rear garden and insulated loft with a Velux window add useful scope. The photographed interiors show a substantial job: incomplete kitchen fittings, an old-fashioned bathroom, worn or unfinished flooring and marked finishes, with damage near a bedroom ceiling to investigate.

The key constraint is the economics: even at this below-average asking price, the purchase plus a mid-to-substantial works programme looks stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this floor area. That comparison is with current local averages, not a forecast of the value after renovation, so the project needs careful costing and a clear plan to create value.

Key opportunities

  • Use the cleared lounge and the kitchen/dining space as a canvas to create a more cohesive interior layout and finish.
  • The generous rear garden offers room to shape a more attractive outdoor space.
  • The insulated loft with a Velux window is a useful existing feature to make the most of alongside the wider renovation.

Key risks

  • Stripped-back kitchen fittings, worn or incomplete floors and marked finishes across several rooms point to a heavy, multi-room programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow time to rebuild and finish the interior.
  • The all-in picture is soft when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 38% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
