This three-bedroom semi-detached property in Burnley, Lancashire, presents a mixed bag of prospects. Its location in Prairie Crescent offers convenience, with good access to local amenities, including Burnley General Hospital and several well-rated schools. Transport links to Brierfield and Burnley Central railway stations are also relatively convenient. However, the property is in need of substantial renovation. Images showcase the need for repair and refurbishment in the kitchen, requiring complete floor replacement. The interior shows wear and tear in various areas, requiring significant investment. Despite some updated fixtures in areas, the overall condition suggests a project rather than a move-in ready home.

The presence of a garden is a plus, although it appears to need attention. The property’s size is 1100 sqft. The lack of plot size data inhibits a complete analysis. The asking price of £160,000 needs to be considered in context with the substantial renovation required. While comparable properties in the area vary in price, the current state of the property makes it crucial for prospective buyers to factor in the considerable costs of upgrading. Cash buyers may find this an appealing opportunity, though a comprehensive survey is essential. Overall, the property offers potential for those willing to undertake significant refurbishment work, but it isn’t a suitable option for those seeking a move-in ready home.

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