Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This mid-terraced period house presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a renovation project. While the interiors throughout are dated, the property offers a blank canvas to create a modern family home with desirable features such as high ceilings and a spacious rear garden. The location is a significant advantage, tucked away in a quiet residential area close to transport links and local amenities, indicating potential for future growth.

The asking price of £725,000 is slightly above the local average at £630/sqf compared to £620/sqf, but this could still represent a reasonable entry point given the scope for refurbishment. The renovation range of £80,000 to £150,000 offers a manageable project scale, allowing for enhancements that could significantly elevate the property's value. With the right vision, this house can become a standout home in a sought-after area.

Key opportunities

  • Significant scope to modernise and enhance the property's interior.
