This property is a plot of land located adjacent to numbers 15 and 17 Selkirk Road in Astley Bridge, Bolton. The land is currently undeveloped, overgrown, and contains litter, as evidenced by the provided photographs. The precise size of the plot is not specified. However, an aerial photograph suggests that it’s considerable enough to potentially support development.

The location of the plot is advantageous, given its proximity to several schools rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, including Thornleigh Salesian College and Holy Infant And St Anthony RC Primary School. The proximity to train stations and other local amenities in the Astley Bridge area is implied but not directly stated.

The property’s listing indicates it will be sold through an online auction, adding a degree of uncertainty regarding the final sale price. The listing price of £27,500 reflects a potential opportunity for development, provided the buyer is prepared for the significant costs associated with preparing and developing the site, securing the necessary permissions, and dealing with the site’s current state of disrepair. A survey is crucial to ascertain the suitability of the land for development and to accurately assess the costs involved.

Potential buyers must approach this property with an understanding of the risks and costs related to land acquisition and development. Independent professional advice is strongly advised before any commitment is made.

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