Description

This two-bedroom terraced house presents a significant opportunity for renovation and modernization, allowing prospective buyers to tailor the property to their preferences. The layout includes an entrance hallway leading to two spacious reception rooms, a kitchen, and a ground floor shower room. Upstairs, you'll find two generous double bedrooms, providing ample living space. The property requires extensive updating throughout, including the kitchen, shower room, flooring, décor, and heating system, as it currently lacks central heating. Externally, there is a private enclosed rear courtyard with rear access, and on-street parking is available. Conveniently situated near local amenities, shops, and transport links, this freehold property is offered with no onward chain. Early viewing is recommended for those seeking a refurbishment project.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This two-bedroom terraced house presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to take on a substantial renovation project. With an asking price of £80,000 translating to just £94/sqf, this property is significantly below the local average of £249/sqf, making it an attractive acquisition for those willing to invest in a full refurbishment. The extensive signs of wear throughout the living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen offer a blank canvas for creative modernisation, allowing new owners to tailor the space to their personal style and needs.

While the property's location near local amenities is a positive aspect, the heavy renovation requirement cannot be overlooked. Significant updating is necessary across all areas, including the kitchen and shower room, which are in need of attention. As such, potential buyers should be prepared for a budget in the region of £100,000 to £150,000 for the refurbishment. This will involve stripping back interiors and a full-gut approach rather than simple cosmetic updates. However, with the right vision, this property has the potential to become a lovely home or a profitable investment.

Key opportunities

  • The opportunity to fully modernise and personalise the living space, creating a comfortable and stylish home.
  • A private enclosed rear courtyard that can be transformed into an inviting outdoor area.
  • The spacious layout allows for potential reconfiguration to enhance flow and functionality.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£150,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
