This 2-bedroom semi-detached house located on Sibley Avenue in Ashton-in-Makerfield, Wigan, presents a mixed bag. The property boasts a desirable location with relatively easy access to well-regarded schools like St. Wilfrid’s and Willow Grove Primary, both achieving ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings. Families and those working in commuting distance of the area will also appreciate its reasonably close proximity to several train stations, ideal for transportation to other major areas of Greater Manchester. The property also features a sizeable garden, though it currently appears to be somewhat overgrown and in need of some attention.

From the images, the property’s condition is a point that may require attention. The exterior looks to be well maintained. However, the interior photographs reveal outdated features, particularly in the kitchen, which exhibits a retro style that might deter some potential buyers. This would likely need modernizing to meet the expectations of many buyers and achieve the best selling price. While this needs work, it’s important to note that the property doesn’t show significant signs of disrepair, and therefore is not in need of heavy renovation work.

The asking price of £150,000 merits consideration within the context of the local market. Comparing it to similar properties in the area, there’s a range in prices influenced largely by the condition of the properties and land size, showing that this property is competitively priced. The potential for enhancement through modernization must be taken into account, however, and this affects its overall attractiveness to buyers looking for a move-in-ready space. The property represents a viable option for a buyer who is comfortable with updating the interior or a buyer who has a budget that can handle some extra work. Overall, this property has potential, but is in need of some investment to truly shine.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. Disclamer: This is our opition and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research.
