Offered chain-free via the Modern Method of Auction, this three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Wigan presents clear short-term letting or refurbishment potential. The property sits close to Wigan town centre and transport links, making it suitable for buyers who want a quick purchase and straightforward access to amenities. Note the auction process requires a non-refundable Reservation Fee and completion terms to be understood before bidding.
The house has a bright lounge, contemporary fitted kitchen and a stylish family bathroom across about 872 sq ft. Three well-proportioned bedrooms and a rear garden give practical space for tenants or a family occupant. The long lease (over 800 years) is effectively equivalent to freehold for most buyers, while Council Tax Band A and low local crime reduce ongoing costs and risk.
Construction is solid-brick Victorian with double glazing and gas central heating to radiators. There is no confirmed wall insulation and rooms are small to medium — expect basic conservation-era layouts and some updating to modern standards. EPC D indicates moderate energy performance; cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements would add value.
This is a priced-to-sell opportunity in a very deprived local area; that presents higher yield potential for investors but may limit capital-growth speed. Buyers should factor in the auction sale mechanics, the Reservation Fee, and likely minor-to-medium refurbishment works when calculating total budget.
