78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £225,000, this Grade II listed stone house is priced well below the local average per square foot, making it an attractive opportunity to acquire a substantial period property. Its stonework, timber panelling, exposed beams and fireplaces give it a distinctive character, while the maintained garden and several reception spaces add to its appeal.
The project looks light in scale: older finishes across several rooms offer scope for a sympathetic cosmetic refresh, with the listed status an important consideration in choosing materials and methods. The asking price and strong fundamentals support a good overall opportunity, though the rural location is a more average part of the picture.
Key opportunities
- Refresh older finishes across several rooms while retaining and highlighting the panelling, beams, fireplaces and exposed stone.
- Create a sympathetic update to the dated kitchen and bathroom that respects the property's listed status.
- Make the most of the maintained front and side gardens, with scope for considered planting and landscaping.
