Summary - 62 Thirlmere Road, Preston, Lancashire, PR1 PR1 5TR
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Ideal for investors or buyers seeking a renovation project near good schools.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, single-storey layout
A spacious two-bedroom semi-detached true bungalow set on a decent plot with driveway, detached garage and private rear garden. The single-storey layout includes two large reception rooms, a compact kitchen and a shower room — offering straightforward living or rental layouts. Double glazing and a gas central heating system are present, but many internal finishes are dated and will need modernising.
Sold via the Modern Method of Auction (terms apply) and offered freehold with no onward chain, this property suits an investor or buyer seeking a renovation project. The accommodation has clear potential to increase value through cosmetic refurbishment, kitchen reconfiguration and garden improvement. Off-street parking for multiple vehicles and the rear garage add practical appeal.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property needs renovation throughout, the surrounding area shows high crime levels and significant deprivation, and some external wear is evident to the driveway and garden. These factors affect resale prospects and should be considered alongside the lower asking price.
Viewing is recommended for anyone targeting a project or buy-to-let opportunity who can manage refurbishment and is comfortable with an auction purchase in this location. Local amenities, schools rated Good, and easy motorway links support rental demand and practical day-to-day living once upgraded.
