Description

A chain-free two-bedroom home in Chadderton, arranged with a vestibule, lounge, separate dining room and kitchen on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The layout offers more than one reception space, and the listing describes the property as larger than average for its type. The house is currently described as being in good condition, although modernisation and refurbishment are needed. It may suit a buyer looking to update a home to their requirements. Local shops, supermarkets and schools are nearby, and Freehold Metrolink stop is stated to be around a 10-minute walk away, with services towards Manchester city centre. The property is offered with no onward chain.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

49out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a light modernisation project with a useful canvas: the listing describes two reception rooms and two double bedrooms, while the photographed interiors show dated decoration, worn flooring and some local making-good to tackle. The fitted kitchen and bathroom remain in place, and the enclosed rear yard and generally intact-looking brick frontage add to the practical appeal. The renovation range is £6,000–£13,000, pointing to a mainly cosmetic refresh rather than a major overhaul.

The WHOTS score is 49/100, grade E, reflecting limited condition and fundamentals scores rather than a confirmed price problem. Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the £130,000 asking price alone is not enough to establish whether it is good value.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the worn floors and dated decoration across the visible interiors, with local wall making-good.
  • Modernise the existing fitted kitchen and bathroom finishes while retaining the fittings that are already in place.
  • Make use of the two-reception-room layout and enclosed, hard-surfaced rear yard.
