Description

This Victorian semi-detached property features three bedrooms and overlooks the nearby Recreation Ground, conveniently situated within walking distance to local amenities. The house is presented with no onward chain and consists of two reception rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, and three bedrooms; however, it requires extensive modernization throughout. Current amenities include gas-fired central heating. The layout includes an entrance hall leading to a lounge with a bay window and fireplace, and a dining room that also features a fireplace. The kitchen provides access to a side garden and includes basic units along with essential fixtures. Upstairs, the first floor comprises a landing with additional storage and three bedrooms—all needing refurbishing—and a bathroom equipped with an electric shower. Externally, the property boasts original front steps alongside shrub beds and a gated pathway leading to an enclosed rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and includes paved areas, a greenhouse, an outside WC, and storage space. This property stands as an excellent renovation project for those looking to maximize investment potential in the East of England market.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

52out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This Victorian semi has a clear medium-scale modernisation project, with period fireplaces and bay-window features giving the two reception rooms and bedrooms character to build on. The dated finishes, worn flooring and overgrown rear garden offer scope to refresh the interiors and make better use of the enclosed outdoor space; the listing also describes it as chain-free and close to the town’s amenities, overlooking the Recreation Ground.

At £235,000, value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged because the floor area is missing. The overall score is a weak opportunity for now, with the missing area data also limiting assessment of the project economics.

Key opportunities

  • Retain and bring out the period fireplaces and bay-window features while refreshing the dated finishes.
  • Modernise the kitchen and bathroom and renew worn or marked flooring as part of a coordinated interior update.
  • Clear and improve the enclosed rear garden, making use of its greenhouse and covered paved area.
