Description
This detached four-bedroom country property occupies grounds of approximately 0.49 acres in Erbistock, close to the River Dee and the Boat Inn. The house is described as requiring a full programme of modernisation and includes two reception rooms, a study or additional living space, a breakfast kitchen, utility room, cloakroom and cellar. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property is offered with vacant possession, according to the listing, and has an EPC rating of F.
Outside, the gardens are mainly laid to grass, with mature trees and shrubs, a patio and several seating areas. A cobbled yard gives access to a range of stone and brick outbuildings, including former shippons, a barn with loft, workshops and a derelict cart-shed area. The listing notes possible alternative uses for some outbuildings, subject to the necessary planning consents; feasibility would need to be checked. Overton-on-Dee is approximately 2.5 miles away, with road links via the A528 and A539.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This has the makings of a distinctive country-home project: traditional beams and fireplace features, a substantial 0.49-acre garden, and a range of outbuildings give it character and scope beyond the house itself. The interior is generally usable but dated, with older kitchen fittings, decoration and flooring offering clear opportunities to update; the suggested renovation range is £35,000–£70,000. Some outbuilding elements are weathered, including a derelict cart-shed area, and any alternative use would need its feasibility and planning requirements checked.
At £550,000, the score is a cautious 54/100 (D). Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged, and without that comparison or a stated end value the resale economics remain uncertain. The semi-rural Erbistock setting and traditional features are appealing, but the numbers do not yet establish how much value this project could create.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated interior finishes and kitchen while retaining the reception rooms’ traditional beams and fireplace features.
- Make use of the substantial established garden, patio and grounds to enhance the country-home setting.
- Explore the range of outbuildings for useful or alternative uses, subject to condition, feasibility and any necessary planning consent.
Key risks
- Some outbuilding elements are weathered, and the listing identifies a derelict cart-shed area; its condition and repair requirements need checking.
