An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

58out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom detached house in Coalville presents a unique opportunity for those looking to acquire a spacious property at a cheap asking price of £170,000, which is significantly below the local average of £261/sqf. With a guide price translating to just £178/sqf, buyers can capitalize on the potential for value creation through extensive renovation. However, the overall economics of the project are less favorable, as the all-in costs, estimated at £295,000, exceed the local average implied value of £249,114, suggesting a challenging margin for future returns.

The property features generous room sizes and a good layout that can be transformed into a modern family home with some thoughtful updates. The dated interiors, including the living areas and bedrooms, offer a blank canvas for renovation enthusiasts, allowing for redecoration and modernization throughout. The garden, while currently overgrown, has excellent potential for landscaping to enhance curb appeal. It's important to approach this project with an understanding of the substantial work required, as the interiors are stripped of their charm and will demand a full-gut renovation to achieve the desired finish.

Key opportunities

  • Spacious rooms that can be reconfigured for modern living.
  • Potential for landscaping to improve curb appeal and outdoor space utilization.
  • A full renovation project that allows for creative design and upgrades throughout.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £100,000–£150,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
  • Plan on something close to £295,000 when purchase and the £125,000 refurb range are added together — around 16% above what similar-sized stock commands locally today; post-works value sits outside our data.
