Summary - 96, CALVERT ROAD, BOLTON BL3 3BT
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Chain-free three-bedroom terrace needing modernisation; good schools and transport close by.
Victorian mid-terrace with bay window and period character
This red-brick Victorian mid-terrace on Calvert Road offers 1,095 sq ft across multiple storeys and immediate possession (chain free). The layout includes a bay-fronted main reception, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, built-in wet room, three bedrooms and a family bathroom — a practical family footprint close to good local schools and Royal Bolton Hospital.
The property is sold as needing renovation: interiors are dated (1970s–1980s style), carpets and wallpaper show wear, and some areas display paint damage and damp signs. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators; glazing is double but install date is unknown. The long lease (864 years) and very low council tax are significant positives for long-term ownership.
Location is a strong selling point for families and first-time buyers seeking value—fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and direct road links (A666) make commuting and connectivity straightforward. The small rear courtyard is low-maintenance but limited in size; scope exists to reconfigure or extend subject to planning and party-wall considerations.
Realistically, this house suits buyers comfortable managing a renovation or investors seeking a refurb-and-let opportunity. The property’s period character and bay window provide good scope to create a bright, contemporary family home once modernised. Material negatives are the need for updating throughout, evidence of damp in parts, and the surrounding area’s high deprivation level which may affect resale timing.
