Fountain Cottages, located in the rural area of Brereton, Cheshire, is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom property currently listed for £110,000. The property’s exterior presents as a traditional brick terrace house. The exterior photographs show some landscaping in the front garden, however there is more work to do.

The interior reveals a property in need of significant modernisation and refurbishment. The carpets and wall coverings are outdated and some pictures show significant signs of mould and damp. The kitchen and bathroom also appear tired. The overall impression is that the property requires substantial investment to bring it up to a habitable standard.

A notable asset is the significant garden space present behind the property. The images reveal a surprisingly large outdoor area, which offers substantial potential for landscaping and development. The property’s location is characterized by its rural setting, which provides peace and quiet, though this also means reduced access to local amenities, necessitating car use for travel to nearby towns like Sandbach for more convenient access to shops and services. The distances to nearby schools vary, ranging from approximately 3km to 4km. Transportation options like the train stations in Alsager, Sandbach, and Holmes Chapel are within reasonable driving distance. However, whether these aspects are positive or negative is dependent on buyers’ preferences. Overall, the property presents a significant fixer-upper project with ample outdoor space, but significant upfront investment is necessary before it becomes a suitable home.

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