Description

This Edwardian home has a double bay-fronted façade and a larger rear addition, with the listing describing approximately 1,384 sq ft of accommodation. The ground floor includes two reception rooms, a kitchen, a cloakroom, a lean-to and a basement. There are three double bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. The property is offered with vacant possession and is described as having had a superficial refurbishment around a year ago, leaving scope for further personalisation. The listing also identifies potential for a substantial L-shaped loft extension, subject to planning permission and other consents; feasibility would need to be checked. Central Park, local schools and Upton Park Underground station are within the walking distances stated by the agent.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

82out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £500,000, this Edwardian double bay-fronted home is a strong acquisition opportunity: its asking price works out at £343 per sq ft, around 28% below the local average. The substantial rear addition gives the three-bedroom house generous existing space, while the dated fittings and finishes leave room for a light, personalising refresh rather than a major overhaul.

The standout upside is the stated potential for a substantial L-shaped loft extension, subject to permissions and consents. The enclosed paved rear area could also be cleared and improved, and the nearby park, schools and Upton Park station add to the family appeal.

Key opportunities

  • The asking price is around 28% below the local average per square foot, creating an attractive entry point.
  • The generous existing rear addition provides useful accommodation and a distinctive base for a family home.
  • The listing highlights potential for a substantial L-shaped loft extension, subject to permissions and consents; the enclosed paved outdoor area also offers scope for a straightforward tidy-up.
