This three-bedroom period terraced house is being offered for the first time in more than a century and is described as requiring complete modernisation. Its existing accommodation and period features provide a starting point for a refurbishment, with scope to consider changes to the layout or an extension, subject to the necessary consents. The property has had two owners during its history.
Second Avenue is close to Mortlake Station, with rail services to London Waterloo. Barnes Village, White Hart Lane and East Sheen offer local shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs, while riverside walks, Richmond Park, Barnes Common and the Wetland Centre are also nearby. The area has a range of state and independent schools.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
42out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This is a substantial period-house project with real character to work around: fireplaces and decorative mouldings remain, the front elevation looks broadly intact, and the paved rear garden is usable. The stripped and worn finishes across several rooms give scope to reshape the interiors, renew the kitchen and bathroom, and explore the stated extension or reconfiguration potential, subject to planning and feasibility.
On renovation economics, combining the asking price with refurbishment of around £85,000 lifts all-in commitment to about £1,185,000 — around 16% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today. That is why the overall grade stays low; we have not forecast value after improvement.
Key opportunities
- Restore the period fireplaces and decorative mouldings as focal points while reworking the stripped interiors into a coherent family home.
- Use the scope described for reconfiguration or extension to explore a more tailored layout, subject to planning and feasibility.
- Build on the usable paved garden and established shrubs with modest landscaping, while renewing the visibly dated kitchen and bathroom.
Key risks
- Stripped or damaged wall finishes and worn or exposed floors across several rooms, alongside dated fittings, make this a substantial programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the £65,000–£105,000 works range needs careful budgeting and scheduling.
- Plan on something close to £1,185,000 including the asking price and quoted works of about £85,000, about 16% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size, so margin after refurbishment is unproven.
