A house for sale in Greater Manchester has been dubbed the 'bargain of the century' with its cheap guide price of just £120,000. The semi-detached home in Bolton sits on a huge plot with a gorgeous wrap-around garden and has 'so much going for it' inside.
Having just been listed for sale on Zoopla, local estate agents Miller Metcalfe expect this two-bed property to be swept off the market fast due to 'huge levels of interest', and say it has masses of potential for a first-time buyer looking to take their first steps onto the ladder.
Not only does it have both a large internal and outdoor space, but the house is priced much cheaper than the average house price in the area, which is currently £302,695 according to the most recent data from the HM Land Registry.

Sitting on a corner plot, the house is set across two floors. On the ground floor there is an entrance door leading into a hallway with another door leading to a big bright lounge. Opposite this is a full width kitchen dining area with a storage cupboard and inner hall.
Upstairs on the first floor there are two large bedrooms and a modern bathroom suite. The house is neutrally decorated throughout creating a blank canvas for the new owner to make their own.
Outside there is a well-maintained wrap-around garden to the front and rear as well as a single driveway to the side for off-street parking. Its location is also attractive for young couples who are hoping to start a family, with Castle Hill Primary School and Tonge Moor Primary School less than half a mile from the house.
