Summary - 20 SYDNEY STREET PLATT BRIDGE WIGAN WN2 5BP
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Compact starter home with clear refurbishment potential and low running costs.
Freehold three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace, approximately 604 sq ft
A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering three bedrooms in a freehold package — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into homeownership or a landlord after a straightforward buy-to-let. The property includes a vestibule entrance, a lounge with retro fireplace, a fitted kitchen/diner and a three-piece family bathroom. Double glazing and gas central heating help with year-round comfort and efficiency.
At about 604 sq ft with a small low-maintenance yard and on-street parking, the house is easy to manage and presents clear scope for value-adding updates — new flooring, cosmetic redecoration and kitchen modernisation would noticeably improve appeal and rental income. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for working from home or letting to tenants.
Buyers should be aware this sits in a very deprived neighbourhood of constrained rental demand; the wider area is characterised by blue-collar terraces. The property is small and requires some cosmetic modernisation, so factor renovation costs and modest resale potential into your plans. Council tax is very low and there is no flood risk, which help running costs.
Local amenities and several good primary schools are within easy walking distance, with public transport links nearby. For a buyer focused on affordability and future upside through improvement, this terraced home represents a practical, low-fee opportunity to secure a foothold in the Wigan market.
