Firsleigh Park, Roche, St. Austell

At £185,000, this three-bedroom home is priced well below the local average on a £/sqf basis, giving buyers an attractive entry point for a light refurbishment. The main value-add is a straightforward interior refresh: replace the heavily worn or exposed flooring across several rooms, redecorate, and improve the kitchen’s damaged cabinet finishes. The older tiled bathroom, paved rear garden and bare side area also offer scope to update the presentation, while the driveway and garage add useful practical features.

The calculated score is 72/100, a Good Opportunity. The visible exterior and roof coverings appear generally intact, though the weathered garage fascia merits a closer look. The £8,000–£16,000 renovation range indicates the scale of the cosmetic work; the engine’s £197,000 purchase-plus-midpoint figure is not a GDV and excludes fees and stamp duty.
