Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a compelling investment opportunity, especially with its asking price of £130,000, which stands at just £166/sqf — significantly below the local average of £219/sqf. This competitive pricing allows for a chance to acquire a property with notable potential for value enhancement through cosmetic refurbishment. The overall condition is dated, with signs of wear visible in the living spaces and kitchen, but this offers a blank canvas for someone looking to inject their personal style and upgrades. Additionally, the enclosed rear garden adds to the appeal, providing a generous outdoor space that can be further improved.

While the property may require a moderate level of work estimated between £20,000 and £40,000, this investment can lead to a strong return, given the local market dynamics. The house is also conveniently located near Atherton Town Centre and comes with no onward chain, making it an attractive option for both first-time buyers and seasoned investors alike. Overall, this listing is a solid opportunity with a good risk profile, especially considering its low entry price compared to local market rates.
