Description
This detached three-bedroom house is offered with no forward chain and presents a substantial refurbishment project. The ground floor has three reception rooms, a kitchen with space for dining and a log-burning stove, plus a separate utility room. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom. The listing describes countryside and fell views from the bedrooms.
Outside, gardens extend around three sides of the house, with mature hedging. A grassed area opposite the property may offer scope for parking, subject to checking access and permissions. The utility room opens onto a courtyard with an outbuilding and outside WC. The listing states that significant work is required throughout, so buyers should assess the condition and likely costs before proceeding.

Confidence: MEDIUM
This detached village house offers a substantial canvas: three reception rooms, three double bedrooms, gardens on three sides and countryside views. The established grounds and generally maintained exterior give the project a solid starting point, while the dated finishes, worn floors and tired kitchen and utility area leave plenty of scope to reshape the interior; the four-piece bathroom is present but ready for a refresh. The stated works range is £35,000–£65,000.
The asking price is £171/sq ft, around 3.5% above the local average, so price is not a particular advantage. More importantly, the £230,000 asking price plus the works range puts the purchase-and-renovation spend at roughly £265,000–£295,000, stretched against the local benchmark of about £222,000 for this floor area. That benchmark is not a forecast of the value after renovation, but the figures make the project’s economics a clear concern. The suggested parking area opposite also needs its access and permissions checked.
Key opportunities
- Rework the dated interiors across three reception rooms and three double bedrooms, with scope to refresh finishes and worn timber floors to suit a coherent style.
- Replace or update the older kitchen and make good the separate utility area; refresh the existing four-piece bathroom rather than starting from an absent suite.
- Make more of the gardens on three sides, mature hedging and courtyard, while exploring the described potential for parking opposite subject to access and permissions.
Key risks
- The £35,000–£65,000 works range makes this a substantial interior programme rather than a cosmetic refresh, with scope across several rooms, flooring, kitchen and utility finishes.
- At £230,000 plus the stated works range, the projected spend is about £265,000–£295,000, well above the roughly £222,000 local-average benchmark for this floor area; that is a material constraint, not a post-works value forecast.
