Description

This three-bedroom duplex apartment presents a unique opportunity for renovators and investors looking to create a personalized living space. Located in a peaceful area, the property spans two floors, offering a layout reminiscent of a traditional house. The ground floor boasts a spacious living room with multiple windows that flood the space with natural light, as well as a well-sized kitchen complete with an under-stairs cupboard for added convenience. Upstairs, you'll find three double bedrooms, providing flexibility for families or those needing extra workspace. The family bathroom is adequately sized and well-appointed. While the property requires renovation, this presents an exciting chance for buyers to modernize and customize their new home.

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom duplex apartment presents a unique opportunity for renovators and investors looking to create a stylish and personalized home. Although the interior shows signs of wear and requires substantial updating, the property's layout feels more akin to a traditional house, arranged over two floors with a spacious living room and a good-sized kitchen. This arrangement allows for creative reconfiguration, offering ample potential to modernize and enhance the living space.

The asking price of £290,000 is notably lower than the local average sale price of £496,059, making this a reasonably priced entry point for a project of this scale. However, buyers should be prepared for a heavy renovation project, as the interiors are dated and will require significant work to bring them to a modern standard. This is not a cosmetic refresh but rather a full-gut programme that will involve stripping back the existing interiors. With the right vision, this property can be transformed into a contemporary home that reflects the buyer's personal style.

Key opportunities

  • Layout offers the potential for creative reconfiguration and personalization.
  • Spacious living room and three double bedrooms allow for flexible use of space.
  • Allocated residents' parking space adds convenience.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a substantial works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
