This one-bedroom, first-floor apartment in the heart of Bolton offers an affordable, chain-free entry to the property market. At about 431 sq ft the layout makes efficient use of space with a large open-plan living/kitchen, one double bedroom, shower room and useful built-in storage — suitable for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor.
The location is a key strength: central Bolton, within walking distance of shops, bars, cafes and Bolton train station with direct services to Manchester. The building is modern red brick and the apartment benefits from double glazing and a bright living area. The long lease (around 244 years remaining) reduces common lease concerns for buyers.
Important practical points: heating is electric (room heaters) and the property uses mains electricity; broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow. The apartment sits within a very deprived area, which may affect long-term capital growth and tenant demand, though council tax is very low. The compact size and basic heating mean some buyers may want to budget for upgrades.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-entry-cost purchase for someone prioritising location and price over space and on-site amenities. It’s especially suited to first-time buyers looking to get onto the ladder or investors seeking a centrally located rental unit, provided they accept the need for potential improvement works and limited broadband infrastructure.
