This five-bedroom terraced house is offered with no onward chain and is located close to Blackpool town centre, with shops, schools, supermarkets, restaurants, public transport and the seafront within reach. The accommodation has a substantial footprint and may suit buyers looking to update the property for occupation or rental use.
The listing describes the house as requiring cosmetic updating and modernisation. It also states that a damp-proof course was completed around six months ago, and that the property has solar panels and an air source heat pump. Buyers should verify the scope and documentation for these works and systems as part of their enquiries.
The agent estimates potential rent of £995 to £1,050 per calendar month after improvement works. This is an estimate rather than a guaranteed income. An anti-money-laundering fee is payable by the buyer after an offer is accepted and is non-refundable once the checks have been completed.

Confidence: MEDIUM
At £120,000, this five-bedroom Blackpool terrace is priced below the local average per square foot, giving buyers a comparatively cheap entry point for a substantial house close to the town centre. Solar panels and an air source heat pump are also already in place. The photographs show a heavy project, with damaged and stained finishes across several interior areas, worn flooring and debris; the kitchen and bathroom are particularly deteriorated, while the front elevation looks weathered. The roof is only partly visible, so its condition cannot be judged from the images.
The key constraint is the economics: even at the below-average asking price, adding a mid-to-substantial works programme leaves the purchase and improvement spend stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average value, not a forecast of the value after renovation. The five-bedroom layout offers scope to rework and finish a sizeable home, but this is a full interior project rather than a cosmetic update.
Key opportunities
- A five-bedroom footprint gives scope to create a refreshed, versatile home near Blackpool town centre.
- The existing solar panels and air source heat pump are useful upgrades to retain and incorporate into the finished property.
- The established planting in the small front garden could be tidied to improve the approach to the house.
Key risks
- Damaged finishes, staining and debris across several areas, alongside deteriorated kitchen and bathroom fittings, point to a heavy full-interior programme; plan for a rebuild of the interior rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- Even with the asking price below the local £/sqf average, purchase plus substantial works is stretched against current local benchmarks for a house of this floor area.
- The all-in picture is soft when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 29% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today; we have not assumed a post-renovation resale figure.
