Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom semi-detached home presents a solid opportunity for buyers willing to undertake some modernisation. With a guide price of £170,000, it's positioned slightly below the local average of £187/sqf, which makes it a reasonable entry point for those looking to invest in a project. The property occupies a substantial plot with attractive field views, providing an appealing backdrop for potential enhancements.

However, it's essential to note that the all-in costs, estimated at around £230,000 when factoring in the renovation range of £40,000 to £80,000, are stretched compared to local benchmarks for similar properties. This could limit the potential for a return on investment, given the current local average value of around £171,109. While there's room for improvement in the living areas, kitchen, and bathroom, the overall dated condition throughout suggests a light renovation project that could yield a more modern space tailored to personal tastes. Early viewing is highly recommended for those interested in this promising opportunity.

Key opportunities

  • Substantial plot size with beautiful field views to enhance outdoor living.
  • Potential to modernise and add personal touches throughout the property.
  • Opportunity for families, first-time buyers, and investors to create value.

Key risks

  • All-in costs are stretched compared to local benchmarks for this floor area.
