Description

Nestled on a sought-after residential street, this traditional stone-built terraced house boasts a charming facade with distinctive green and dark trim accents around the front door and bay window. The property is set back from the road, featuring a low-maintenance, gated front courtyard enclosed by a sturdy stone boundary wall. Upon entering, you're greeted by a traditional hallway that leads to the main living areas. The lounge, located at the front of the home, features a walk-in bay window that allows natural light to flood the space, providing a blank canvas for modernisation and cosmetic improvements. Adjacent to the lounge is a versatile second reception room or dining room, which offers great potential for reconfiguration to suit contemporary family living needs. The kitchen is equipped with wooden wall and base units, a freestanding gas cooker with an overhead extractor, and plumbing for a washing machine. A rear-aspect window and an external door provide access to the enclosed rear yard. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, with the primary bedroom spanning the front of the house and featuring twin windows for ample light. The family bathroom, centrally located, is functional but in need of updating and modernisation. The rear yard presents an opportunity for enhancement or landscaping to create an inviting outdoor space. This property requires comprehensive repair and refurbishment throughout, making it an ideal project for builders or investors looking to add their personal touch. Conveniently located near the heart of Chorley, it offers excellent local amenities, schools, and transport links.

Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This terraced house offers a unique opportunity for buyers looking to create their dream home in a popular location. With a distinctive facade and a layout ripe for reconfiguration, the property presents a blank canvas that can be transformed into a modern living space. The living areas, along with the three bedrooms, are in need of significant cosmetic updates, allowing for a bespoke renovation tailored to your taste.

While the property is currently dated with extensive wear and requires considerable work throughout, the potential for significant value increase is evident. The kitchen and bathroom, while functional, are also in need of substantial updates, further emphasizing the scope available for a comprehensive refurbishment. Positioned close to local amenities and schools, this property is well-placed for those looking to invest in a thriving community.

Key opportunities

  • The layout allows for reconfiguration of the living spaces to suit modern family living.
  • The property's distinctive facade and features can be restored to enhance curb appeal.
  • The enclosed rear yard offers potential for landscaping and outdoor enhancements.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £10,000–£30,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • Extensive repairs required throughout, including outdated interior finishes and potential damp.
