71out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £1,000,000, this four-bedroom Victorian house is priced at £628/sqf, below the local average of £776/sqf — a clear acquisition advantage for a substantial home in a sought-after East Dulwich location. Its period proportions, fireplaces, bay windows and decorative hall detailing give the project character, while the dated finishes leave room to refresh and personalise the interiors. The kitchen and bathroom look intact but old-fashioned; the rear garden would also benefit from clearance and attention.

The renovation range is £12,000–£26,000, with the main visible tasks including redecoration, improving a heavily worn reception-room floor and tidying the garden. The strong price and fundamentals support a good overall opportunity, while the visible condition is a more modest part of the score.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire below the local £/sqf average in a sought-after East Dulwich position.
  • Refresh the dated finishes while retaining and showcasing period features such as fireplaces, bay windows and decorative hall detailing.
  • Clear and improve the private rear garden, which includes a shed and space for further attention.

Key risks

  • One reception-room floor is heavily worn and patchy, so allow for repair or replacement.
