Description

A two-bedroom terraced house offered with no onward chain, with a layout that includes two ground-floor reception rooms, a kitchen and a rear lean-to, plus two double bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. The front reception has previously been used as a third bedroom, giving some flexibility in how the ground floor is arranged. The property is described as stripped back and ready for a purchaser to refurbish and finish to their own requirements. Outside, there is on-street parking and a generous rear garden. Local shops, cafés and food outlets are within reach, as is Queens Park, which offers sporting and recreational facilities. The property is leasehold, with a stated 999-year term commencing in 1933, and has an EPC rating of C. Buyers should verify the lease details, services and property condition as part of their enquiries.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

66out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £100,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced well below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear acquisition opportunity. The stripped-back interiors offer scope to reshape the two reception rooms—including the front room’s potential use as a third bedroom—and create a home to suit your plans. The enclosed rear garden, with paving already in place, adds another practical project to the mix.

This is a substantial job rather than a cosmetic refresh: several rooms have worn or unfinished floors and marked walls, while the kitchen is minimally fitted and the bathroom is dated. The guide to the project is £35,000–£65,000 for works; the roof appears generally intact in the available exterior view, though the tired lean-to merits a closer look. The asking price plus the renovation midpoint totals £150,000 against an implied local-average value of about £165,000, before fees and with no claim that this is a renovated resale value.

Key opportunities

  • The two reception rooms provide flexibility to retain separate living spaces or explore using the front room as a third bedroom.
  • A stripped-back interior gives scope to set the finish throughout, including replacing the minimally fitted kitchen and updating the dated bathroom.
  • The enclosed rear garden already has a paved section, offering a starting point for a more usable private outdoor space.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors, worn floors and damaged finishes across several rooms, with a £35,000–£65,000 works range, make this a substantial programme to budget and schedule rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • The lean-to is tired and its weather-tightness is uncertain.
