Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom terraced house on Lower Thomas Street presents a solid opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with potential. The asking price of £100,000 is notably cheap at £106/sqf, compared to the local average of £166/sqf, making it an attractive acquisition for first-time buyers or investors aiming to create value through renovation.

While the property does require significant modernisation throughout, including dated living spaces, a worn kitchen, and an aging bathroom, these areas provide a blank canvas for improvement. The exterior is generally sound, with a small courtyard offering low-maintenance outdoor space. With an estimated renovation budget between £40,000 and £80,000, there’s ample scope to enhance the property and tailor it to personal tastes, potentially increasing its market value in a good location close to local amenities and transport links.

Key opportunities

  • The low asking price compared to local £/sqf provides a strong entry point for investment.
  • Significant scope for renovation throughout, allowing buyers to personalise the property.
  • Good location with access to local amenities and scenic views, enhancing its appeal post-renovation.

Key risks

  • Medium project scale requiring a budget for significant renovation works.
  • Potential damp signs noted in various areas, necessitating further inspection.
