Description

Offered at auction, this well-situated three double bedroom family house is ripe for a comprehensive modernisation. Located on St Augustine Road, just under three-quarters of a mile from Southsea Seafront, this property presents a valuable opportunity for builders and investors alike. The house, dating back to around 1920, features brick elevations beneath a pitched slate roof, with charming architectural details such as a splay bay window and a canopied front door. Inside, the entrance hall leads to a lounge with a tiled fireplace and a spacious living and dining room that opens to a lean-to conservatory. The kitchen is equipped with fitted cupboards and a gas cooker point, while the first floor comprises three bedrooms and a bathroom with a cast-iron bath. The property benefits from gas central heating and UPVC replacement double-glazing throughout. Outside, there is a shallow forecourt at the front and an average-sized garden to the rear that enjoys an easterly aspect. This lot is ideal for owner-occupation or lucrative letting after refurbishment.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom terraced house presents a solid opportunity for builders and investors looking to take on a comprehensive renovation project. With a guide price of £210,000, the property is attractively priced compared to the local average of £276,910, suggesting potential for value creation post-refurbishment.

While the interiors are dated, with significant wear seen in the living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen, this allows for a fresh canvas to reimagine the space. The garden is also in need of clearing and improvement, further adding to the scope of works. The house's good location near amenities and potential for rental income post-renovation make it worth considering, despite the heavy project scale involved.

Key opportunities

  • Opportunity to modernise the layout and decor across all living spaces, enhancing both comfort and appeal.
  • Potential to transform the outdoor area into a desirable garden space, adding value for future occupants or renters.
  • A well-situated property in a popular residential area, ripe for investment and long-term rental income.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £10,000–£50,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • General signs of wear and potential damp issues throughout the property may require additional attention.
