The listing notes period features that could be restored as part of a programme of modernisation. The property is offered through the Modern Method of Auction. The listing identifies the kitchen, bathroom, heating and decoration as requiring comprehensive updating. Outside, there is an enclosed rear garden, a garage and driveway parking. Buyers should review the auction information pack and confirm the reservation fee and other terms, as well as check the condition of services, title and measurements before proceeding.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £200,000, this Old Town terraced house is priced at about £200/sqf, well below the local average of £269/sqf—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to create value. The rear garden, garage and driveway add to the appeal, while the listing describes period features and a possible two- or three-bedroom arrangement, though the latter would need checking for feasibility.

The photographed interiors show a substantial project: the kitchen and shower room are dated and worn, finishes and flooring need attention in several areas, and the rear garden needs clearing and improvement. That gives a buyer scope to reshape and modernise the house rather than settle for a cosmetic refresh. The listing is offered through the Modern Method of Auction; bidding can take the price above the guide, so it may not remain this cheap against local £/sqf.

Key opportunities

  • Create a coherent modern interior from the worn finishes, updating the kitchen and shower room as part of a wider improvement plan.
  • Explore the flexible two- or three-bedroom arrangement described in the listing, subject to confirming that a third bedroom is practical.
  • Clear and improve the enclosed rear garden, with the stated garage and driveway adding useful extra appeal.

Key risks

  • Worn flooring and deteriorated finishes across several photographed areas, including dark deterioration at floor level in one room, need closer inspection to establish the extent of repair.
  • A substantial multi-room programme—from kitchen and shower-room modernisation to flooring, decoration and garden clearance—will require careful budgeting and time; this is more than a cosmetic refresh.
