Description

This three-bedroom detached house offers significant potential for modernization, featuring a full-width ground floor extension. Built in 1978, the property has been home to the current owners for over three decades. Nestled in a desirable close, it is conveniently located within walking distance of Birchwood Grove Primary School and just a 15-minute stroll to the mainline railway station. The layout includes an entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor and a cloakroom/wc. The triple-aspect kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with a range of cupboards and integrated cooking appliances, providing ample space for family meals. The spacious bay-fronted lounge/dining room runs the length of the house and opens through double-glazed sliding patio doors to the rear garden. Upstairs, you will find two double bedrooms, a good-sized single bedroom, and a large bathroom complete with a separate shower cubicle. Outside, the property features a block-paved driveway with parking for two cars, leading to a garage with a pedestrian door. A side gate provides access to a wide block-paved side area that extends to the rear, which is laid to pebblestones and includes a patio area, inset shrubs, and a timber shed. Additional benefits include gas-fired central heating, with the Glow-worm combination boiler located in the kitchen, and uPVC framed double-glazed windows. This property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in a home that can be tailored to their personal taste.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This 3-bedroom detached house presents a compelling opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a property with significant potential for modernisation. Priced at £425,000, this asking figure is notably cheap at £318/sqf compared to the local average of £429/sqf, providing a strong foundation for value creation. The property features a full-width ground floor extension and benefits from a spacious layout, including a large lounge/dining area and a triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room, all awaiting a fresh touch.

While the interior shows signs of age and requires redecoration throughout, this presents a blank canvas for new owners to enhance and personalise. There’s also scope to improve the garden, which currently needs landscaping. With renovation costs estimated between £40,000 and £80,000, the overall investment remains attractive, especially considering the local market dynamics. The good exterior and roof condition add to the home's appeal, making this property a worthwhile project in a desirable location near schools and transport links.

Key opportunities

  • Full-width ground floor extension presents potential for a spacious living area.
  • Opportunity to completely modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom.
  • Scope to enhance the garden area for better outdoor enjoyment.

Key risks

  • General wear and signs of age noted throughout the property.
  • Moderate intensity of renovation required to update interiors.
