Description

The listing notes air conditioning in the front bedroom, restored fireplaces in two bedrooms, and pull-down access from the landing to a boarded loft area for storage. Outside, there is a private rear courtyard. Buyers should review the auction terms, including the reservation fee payable in addition to the agreed purchase price, and check the legal pack and property details before proceeding.

54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £130,000, this three-bedroom period terrace is priced below the local average at £140 per sq ft, making it an appealing opportunity to acquire a characterful home. Stained-glass entrance detailing, original fireplaces and a private rear courtyard give it features to build on, while the dated finishes offer scope for a medium-scale modernisation.
The main caution is the project arithmetic: even with the below-average purchase price, a mid-to-substantial programme of works leaves the overall outlay stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average values, not a forecast of what the property might be worth after renovation. The listing is being sold by modern auction; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom as part of a coherent modernisation.
- Update the wallpaper, decorative finishes and mixed older flooring across the photographed living spaces.
- Retain and showcase the stained-glass entrance and original fireplaces, with scope to improve the planted rear courtyard.
Key risks
- The purchase price plus a mid-to-substantial works programme looks stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this floor area, limiting the apparent economic headroom.
- The all-in picture is soft when the asking price sits alongside the indicated works scale — around 17% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
