Description

Upstairs are two double bedrooms, both with fitted storage, and a bathroom with a four-piece suite. The enclosed rear courtyard is described as low maintenance and south-west facing, with a shed. The property is offered with no onward chain and is stated to need some updating, giving a buyer scope to refresh the existing accommodation.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
65out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £240,000, this two-bedroom terrace is priced below the local average at £297/sqf versus £345/sqf, making the asking price a clear acquisition opportunity. The C-grade score reflects a promising but not exceptional overall proposition: the home is liveable and the work looks light, with dated finishes and hallway scuffs offering scope to refresh rather than a major renovation programme.
The open-plan reception, fitted storage in both bedrooms and usable enclosed courtyard give the project a solid starting point. Its walking-distance access to York city centre and the railway station adds to the appeal.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the scuffed hallway and dated finishes for a more cohesive, contemporary feel.
- Build on the open-plan reception's feature fireplace and hardwood-effect flooring to create a stronger focal living space.
- Make the most of the enclosed, south-west-facing courtyard as a low-maintenance outdoor area.
