Description

This chain-free, two-bedroom mid-terrace house is offered as a refurbishment project, with scope to update the existing accommodation. A front porch opens into the lounge, which leads through to a long kitchen and dining area. The ground floor also includes a shower room. Upstairs are two bedrooms, with a storage cupboard in the larger room. The kitchen has wall and base units, a sink and space for a cooker, while the shower room includes a walk-in shower, basin and WC. Outside, the property has a rear garden with a lawn section and a detached garage. The listing describes the house as needing updating throughout, and notes potential to modernise or reconfigure the kitchen and dining space.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

48out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At 48/100, this is a lower-scoring opportunity, but the two-bedroom terrace has a clear renovation canvas: the photographed interiors are dated, with scope to refresh the kitchen, finishes and flooring, while the front boundary and weathered elevation could also be improved. A rear garden and detached garage add useful features, and the visible roofline appears broadly intact. The indicated renovation range is £28,000–£48,000.

The £85,000–£90,000 guide is difficult to assess for value against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing. The score also reflects that the eventual value after works cannot be judged from the available figures, rather than a confirmed price disadvantage.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the older kitchen units and finishes, with potential to rethink the long kitchen/diner layout.
  • Refresh dated decoration and worn floor coverings across the photographed interior.
  • Improve the weathered front elevation and untidy entrance/boundary; the rear garden and detached garage offer additional scope and utility.

Key risks

  • The front elevation and entrance/boundary show weathering, patching or deterioration; the extent of any remedial work should be checked.
  • The shower itself is not visible in the photographs, so confirm its condition and the scope of work needed in the shower room.
  • Without a floor area, value versus local £/sqf and the potential resale economics cannot yet be assessed.
