Summary - Chorley Old Road, Bolton, BL1 BL1 6BH
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious detached home with garage and large plot, ideal for renovation and family life.
Detached two-bedroom with potential to convert into four bedrooms
Set on a sought-after Bolton road within walking distance of well-regarded primary and secondary schools, this detached two-bedroom home offers substantial space and clear potential. The property sits on a large plot with front and rear gardens, a separate double garage and driveway — useful for families who need parking and storage. The layout currently provides two reception rooms and two double bedrooms, with scope to convert to four bedrooms or extend subject to planning (STPP).
The house is in need of full modernisation: interiors show dated finishes, worn carpets, patterned wallpaper and evidence of general wear. The boiler and mains-gas central heating are present, and the home benefits from double glazing, but fixtures, fittings and decorative elements will need replacement to create a contemporary family home. The EPC rating is F.
Sold at auction by the Modern Method of Auction with a starting/guide price around £220,000 plus a reservation fee, this is a good opportunity for buyers wanting a renovation project in a comfortable suburban area. The long lease (circa 920 years) and low ground rent are practical positives. Buyers should allow for renovation costs, and note auction terms, reservation fee and buyer due-diligence requirements.
For families or investors prepared to remodel, the property’s size, garden and garage offer strong upside. Its location near top independent and state schools, good broadband and excellent mobile signal make it practical for modern family life while the potential to extend increases future value for growing households.
