Description
Offered at auction, this two-bedroom bungalow occupies a corner plot in Crawshawbooth, with gardens around the property, driveway parking and a detached single garage. The accommodation is all on one level and includes an entrance hall, lounge with French doors towards the former conservatory, kitchen, one double bedroom, one single bedroom and a shower room. The conservatory has collapsed and is in poor repair, and the listing describes the bungalow as requiring comprehensive modernisation. Buyers should allow for refurbishment and for addressing the conservatory. The plot may offer scope to adapt or extend the accommodation, subject to permissions and checks. Crawshawbooth has local shops and places to eat, with further amenities in nearby Rawtenstall and countryside in the surrounding Rossendale area. The sale uses the Modern Method of Auction, with a 56-day reservation period and a non-refundable reservation fee; buyers should review the auction terms and information pack before bidding.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
45out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
The appeal here is the corner plot and single-storey layout: a two-bedroom bungalow with driveway parking and a detached garage offers a clear canvas to reshape for a future owner. The interiors need a substantial rethink, while the overgrown gardens and collapsed conservatory add scope to the project. The main pitched roof appears intact in the available views.
At 45/100, this is a low-opportunity score overall. The £150,000 guide is not judged cheap or dear against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing, so value versus local rates cannot yet be assessed. The £45,000–£75,000 renovation range gives a sense of the work involved, but the missing floor area also limits assessment of the finished-value economics.
Key opportunities
- Rework the single-storey layout and dated finishes to create a home tailored to single-storey living.
- The corner plot, with gardens to three sides, offers scope to improve the outdoor space and explore adaptation or extension subject to permissions and checks.
- The driveway and detached garage add practical value to the renovation canvas.
Key risks
- The collapsed conservatory, worn finishes across several interior rooms and overgrown gardens make this a substantial project: the £45,000–£75,000 works range points to a significant budget and programme, not a cosmetic refresh.
