This 3-bedroom property in Farnworth, Bolton, is being offered for sale via online auction. The provided photographs showcase a property in need of extensive refurbishment. The interior features outdated and damaged finishes, including wallpaper, flooring, and some structural issues. The kitchen and bathroom are also dated and in need of modernization. The exterior, while a standard brick semi-detached house, shows some signs of neglect, with an overgrown garden.

The location in Farnworth offers reasonable proximity to schools, transportation (train stations within a few kilometers), and local amenities. Several ‘Good’-rated primary schools are within walking distance. However, the absence of square footage data hinders a proper assessment of the price per square foot, making a definitive statement on value challenging. The presence of a garden is a positive aspect, although it requires considerable work. The auction format introduces an element of uncertainty to the final sale price, potentially leading to a price above or below the listed £70,000.

Overall, this property presents an opportunity for a buyer with renovation experience and a tolerance for risk. A comprehensive renovation would be essential, significantly increasing the costs. The relatively low list price, coupled with the auction format, may attract investors or individuals comfortable with considerable renovation work.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
