The Horse Guards, Brokenborough, Malmesbury

This spacious detached house presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property at a significantly lower price per square foot compared to local averages. With an asking price of £500,000, this property is £135/sqf, which is 64.9% below the local average of £386/sqf. The potential here is immense, especially given the layout and the possibility for community use, making it an appealing project for investors and those looking to add value through extensive refurbishment.

However, the property has been vacant for about five years and shows considerable signs of neglect throughout. The garden is overgrown, the interior spaces exhibit significant wear, and the kitchen is in need of a complete refresh. With a renovation range of £50,000 to £100,000, this property will require a full-gut programme, which adds to the overall project scale and budget considerations. While the price is an attractive entry point, prospective buyers should be prepared for the extensive work ahead to restore this property to its full potential.
