Description

A detached three-bedroom house in a private rural setting, offered with no onward chain. The ground floor has two reception rooms, a kitchen and a family bathroom, while upstairs are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite facilities. A fireplace with a log burner provides a focal point in the main living room. The property is described as needing modernisation, giving a buyer scope to update the accommodation. It sits on a generous plot with a substantial garden, a broad frontage, off-street parking for several vehicles and a detached garage. There may be scope to extend or reconfigure the house, subject to the necessary consents and verification of feasibility.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

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

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a light-refresh project with a strong canvas: a detached three-bedroom home in a private rural setting, with a generous garden, broad driveway, garage and a characterful log burner. The photographed rooms look usable, while older finishes across the interior give scope to update the décor and flooring and make the home your own.

At £425,000, the asking price is about £358 per sq ft, just below the local average of £360, which is a reasonable starting point rather than a discount that transforms the deal. The overall WHOTS score is 56/100, grade D: the plot and fundamentals are appealing, but the price leaves limited headroom against the local average. Any extension or reconfiguration would be subject to the necessary consents.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated finishes across the photographed interiors, including flooring and decorative details.
  • Enjoy the substantial garden, maintained lawn, planted borders, paved seating area and greenhouse.
  • Explore the stated potential to extend or reconfigure, subject to the necessary consents.

Key risks
