Summary -
48 Woodhouse Lane,WIGAN,WN6 7LN
WN6 7LN
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Ready-to-move-in starter home with low running costs and long lease.
Newly redecorated and re-carpeted throughout
A traditional two-bedroom Victorian terrace, freshly redecorated and re-carpeted, offering straightforward move-in condition. The bay-fronted living room and separate dining room give more space and flexibility than many terraces, while a fitted kitchen and combi boiler keep running costs simple. Double glazing is installed throughout and the property includes a small front garden and rear yard with a decked patio.
This leasehold house comes with a very long 999-year lease and a nominal ground rent of £12 per year; council tax is described as very cheap. At about 826 sq ft across two storeys, the house suits first-time buyers looking for an affordable starter home, or owner-occupiers who want period character without immediate renovation work.
Buyers should note the wider context: the area is classified as very deprived with constrained rental demand in nearby streets. That can mean lower purchase prices and rental yields, but it also reflects local socioeconomic challenges. School options close by include a mix of Ofsted ratings—some good or outstanding, others requiring improvement—so check individual school catchments if this matters.
Practical positives include excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, low local crime, no flooding risk, and convenient amenities and transport close at hand. The property is presented honestly as a value-driven, low-maintenance starter home in a traditional terrace, with clear potential for modest personalization over time.
