Description

This three-bedroom terraced house is situated in the desirable village of Minster, offering a fantastic opportunity for those looking to add their personal touch. The property features a spacious lounge and a kitchen/diner that opens directly onto the rear garden, perfect for entertaining or family gatherings. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized double bedrooms alongside a well-proportioned single bedroom, with the main bedroom benefiting from a built-in wardrobe. The family bathroom includes a WC, wash basin, and a large walk-in shower. Externally, the rear garden is primarily paved, ensuring low maintenance, and includes a useful timber shed. The front garden is laid to lawn with mature shrubs, providing attractive curb appeal. Additional benefits include a garage and allocated parking en bloc. While the property would benefit from some modernisation and updating, it presents an excellent opportunity for new owners to create a home that reflects their individual style and preferences. This property is ideal for families, first-time buyers, or anyone seeking a well-proportioned home with potential for improvement in a sought-after location.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

52out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At 52/100, this is a weaker overall opportunity, though it has a useful canvas for a light, personal update rather than a major overhaul. The three-bedroom layout includes a spacious lounge, kitchen/diner opening onto the garden, and a usable shower room; the timber-effect kitchen and older finishes in several rooms offer scope for selective redecoration and refreshing. The paved rear garden could also benefit from a tidy-up, while the listing states that a garage and allocated parking are included.

The £240,000 asking price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because the floor area is missing. The estimated £6,000–£18,000 renovation range suggests a relatively modest project, but without floor area or a stated resale value, the overall value-add is difficult to assess.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated décor and finishes across several rooms to give the home a more cohesive, personal look.
  • The lounge and kitchen/diner provide a practical layout, with doors from the dining area directly to the rear garden.
  • Tidy the paved garden and make use of the included garage and allocated parking.
