Description

This two-bedroom Edwardian terraced house has an open-plan ground floor and a 52-foot rear garden with a modern home office. The listing describes the property as a blank canvas, with scope to update the interiors over time and explore an extension, subject to the necessary consents and feasibility checks. Raynes Park and Wimbledon Chase stations and local shops are both accessible from the property.

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a tidy, liveable Edwardian house with a clean open-plan ground floor, two maintained bedrooms and a particularly useful established garden with a separate office. The dated kitchen and bathroom offer straightforward scope to update over time, while the listing also describes possible extension scope subject to planning consent.

The project numbers deserve scrutiny: once you include an estimated £12,000 of works on top of the asking price, spend approaches £712,000 — roughly 16% above what comparable floor area achieves locally in current condition. The economics score captures that squeeze; finished resale value is outside our model.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated but serviceable kitchen and bathroom to suit a buyer’s taste.
  • Make use of the established 52-foot garden, paved seating area and separate garden office.
  • Explore the described extension scope, subject to planning consent and feasibility.

Key risks

  • The guide price is £824/sqf, around 17% above the local average of £702/sqf.
  • At the guide price, adding the £6,000–£18,000 refurb range leaves the purchase and works cost stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area; this is not a post-works value estimate.
