Description
Offered at auction, this two-bedroom terraced property in Tyldesley has two reception rooms, a kitchen and utility area on the ground floor, with two bedrooms and a bathroom above. The listing also describes two large cellar rooms, a small yard and a separate plot of land beyond the cobbled alley behind the property.
The building appears to have previously had commercial use at ground-floor level, although it has more recently been used as a residence. The seller cannot confirm its current planning use classification, so buyers should make their own enquiries before considering any change of use. The property is sold as seen, is offered to cash buyers only and has a 60-day completion period. Access during viewings is restricted to the ground floor and exterior for safety reasons.
The sale is by online auction and includes a reservation fee, a separately payable search pack and leasehold tenure with 755 years remaining. The title is currently unregistered, and buyers should review the available legal documents and searches and take independent legal advice before bidding. The listing describes the property as being in very poor repair and says the reserve is above the stated starting price.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
40out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a substantial project rather than a cosmetic refresh: the visible interiors have extensive damage and missing finishes, with a deteriorated kitchen and bathroom, stained cellar surfaces and heavily worn floors. The upside is the scope to rework the ground-floor spaces, which the listing says may have commercial potential, alongside two large cellar rooms and a separate rear plot. The listing says the ground floor and exterior are the only areas available to view, so the full condition and the property’s use classification need careful verification.
At 40/100, this is a low-opportunity score, driven chiefly by the weak condition and the scale of the work. The £56,000 headline price cannot be judged against local £/sqf because floor area is missing; the value comparison remains open rather than a confirmed bargain. It is offered by auction, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two ground-floor reception spaces around their potential commercial use, subject to checking the property’s current use classification and any requirements for a change.
- The two large cellar rooms offer scope to improve and make better use of substantial additional space, subject to assessing their condition.
- Clear and improve the separate rear plot, after confirming its ownership, boundaries and relationship to the house.
Key risks
- Extensive damage, missing finishes and debris across the visible rooms, plus stained and deteriorated cellar surfaces, point to a full interior rebuild programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow time and cash for a substantial job.
- The sale is cash buyers only, with completion required within 60 days; access is restricted to the ground floor and exterior, and the listing disclaims withdrawal over condition, structural issues, financing or uncertainty about the property’s use classification.
