Description

This four-bedroom period end-terrace in Platt Bridge offers approximately 162 sq m of accommodation, three reception rooms and original features including high ceilings, decorative coving and fireplaces. The ground floor has a front lounge with a bay window, a second rear lounge and a dining room leading to the kitchen. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a family bathroom, reached from a long landing. The property has gas central heating with a combi boiler, and the seller says the boiler is regularly serviced and the electrical installation is checked regularly. Gardens extend to the front and side, with an enclosed rear yard and an outlook towards parkland. Full modernisation is required, giving a purchaser scope to update the interiors while retaining period details. Platt Bridge has local schools and bus links to Wigan and Leigh; Hindley railway station provides services towards Manchester. Nearby green spaces include Low Hall and Amberswood.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £199,950, this four-bedroom period home is priced at £115 per sq ft, around 45% below the local average—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to create value. Its generous three-reception layout, high ceilings and original fireplaces give the modernisation project character and plenty of scope, while the parkland outlook adds to the setting. The interiors are visibly dated, with an older kitchen and bathroom, and the overgrown side garden, worn rear yard and peeling rear paint offer further opportunities to improve.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom to give the home a more contemporary feel.
  • Refresh carpets and decoration while retaining the fireplaces, coving and other period details.
  • Tidy the overgrown side garden and improve the rear yard and peeling exterior paint.
