Description
Offered at auction, this three-bedroom terraced house is vacant on completion and has no onward chain. The ground floor includes an entrance porch, a long dining room, a separate lounge, a kitchen and a rear porch. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC.
The property is described as needing updating and is leasehold, with a short lease noted. The lease terms should be checked with a solicitor. Outside, there is a good-sized rear garden backing onto woodland, while parking is on the road at the front. Saddleworth is nearby. The sale uses the Modern Method of Auction, with a 56-day reservation period and a buyer reservation fee in addition to the purchase price.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
53out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a medium-scale project with a clear canvas: the separate living and dining spaces, three bedrooms and sizeable rear garden offer scope to refresh the home and make more of its layout and outdoor space. Visible finishes are dated across the rooms shown, and the garden is heavily overgrown; the renovation range is £36,000–£65,000. The brick exterior and visible windows appear generally intact, though the entrance panels and cladding look weathered.
The overall score is 53/100, grade D (Weak Opportunity). The £120,000 starting bid is not enough to judge value against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing; the short lease also needs careful investigation. This is offered by Modern Method of Auction, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated finishes across the visible living and bedroom spaces, including flooring and decoration.
- Replace the dated kitchen and bathroom finishes to give the home a more contemporary feel.
- Clear and improve the sizeable rear garden, with scope to reveal more of its usable space.
Key risks
- The listing states the property has a short lease; establish the lease terms and implications before proceeding.
